how do i measure my drain for this product? the top of the drain is 4 inches but looks like it slopes in to 3 inches. home was built in the 50's

I would think it would depend how much "depth" of the 4" surface there is before the transition to 3". If you have approximately 2" of 4" diameter depth I would recommend the 4" product.The reason being that the device is installed by manually turning 4 screws to expand it into location. The "deeper" your location may provide a more complex installation in my "opinion".

Measure the top of your drain edge. The rubber ring around the top of the device expands to the drain wall to make a water tight seal as you tighten the screws on the top..

From the top of the rim to the drain is 5 ⅛ inches. The faucet I installed hits the center of the drain, but the faucet swivels. There is absolutely no splash problem.

I used the drain that was used for my old washer. It is on the wall about 3 feet high. I have no problems with this configuration.

Bill, it is the width of the sink. It is fairly deep. May require some mods on the drain pipe. Won't be sorry though. Very happy with the appearance and quality

I would have to go measure it but guessing it to be about 12in. I also have a narrow basin and it sprays right into the drain hole. My wife loves this both look and function.

I measured it , it is 3/4 inch o d . You will need a reducer . Which is very cheap. I hope this helped.

My sink opening is 3 1/4 inches. It works well in my sink. The outer edges of the rubber ring are flexible, and the non-flexible portion is less than 3 inches. My gut says it'll probably work but I can't tell for sure. I tried to find a 3 inch opening in one of my other drains and couldn't find one. Good luck!

Diameter 16 1/4 inch Height from counter is 5 3/4 inch Caution: Even though I contacted Kohler prior to purchase, they assured me that the drain that came with the unit is the correct one, the drain I received did not work with the overflow. I think I needed the "other" type of drain with overflow built-in.

I just measured and it is about 12.5 inches from the base if the drain to the height of the overflow center.

Good morning Michael F, the measurement from center of fixture (center of drain pull) to edge of water spout is 5 inches. the water spout extends over the sink 3 1/4 inches. I hope that answers your question. Marilee

I just measured the basket portion at 2 1/2 inches. The rim is one inch and sits on the outer edge of drain. The basket wasn't measured by me but sits properly in the drain and doesn't interfere with the water drainage. I really like this item a lot. It is made with quality materials and always looks new. I highly recommend this.

Hello Jo. Thanks for asking. You can place it at a height equivalent to the length of the tank draining tube. That's why they've given you the draining tube at a certain length, I suppose!But saying all that, my advice to you is to return it if you're in US, as you'll get your money back. It's a piece of junk!!!!

The Doggie Dooley fits 3" or 4" drains. I attached it to a 4" drain. Big Dog= Big Drain. I cut the 3" fitting of the Dooley. I extended the drain fitting so I wouldn't have to bend over to far to open. The top of the Dooley is about 12" off the ground. I love It!!! Works very well and having it next to a faucet makes washing down the waste very simple. The one thing to watch, is that the bowl is lighter wieght than I would have liked, You just have to be careful when using a shovel to dump the waste. Hope this Helps.

It drains by overflowing at a low spot in the perimeter bottom pan. You'll see it is only about a 1/4" high.

You would have to move your drain to make this work. IF you got this one and couldn't move the drain, you'd have to piece one end to make the drain come to where a tub drain is, and in doing that you'd mess with the slope. Since this inquiry was a couple of weeks ago, you probably know that by now. :) Schluter does make bases in numerous sizes, so there's probably something that will work better for you than this one.

Jacqueline, the inside dimensions of our sink are: at the top - 17 x 12 1/2 - there is a gentle slop to the sides so that at the bottom of the sink the dimensions reduce to 16 x 11 1/2. the depth of the sink (with the slope to the drain) is 3" at the outer edge and 4" at the drain. I hope that information helps. We like the sink. We had some issues with the Kraus drain included with the sink and Kraus sent me a replacement drain, but by that point (a couple of weeks after installation), the leak stopped. It could have been the flexible washer finally getting settled in place. -Jon Jacqueline, the inside dimensions of our sink are: at the top - 17 x 12 1/2 - there is a gentle slop to the sides so that at the bottom of the sink the dimensions reduce to 16 x 11 1/2. the depth of the sink (with the slope to the drain) is 3" at the outer edge and 4" at the drain.

Sorry, I can't be more exact. My house is an older one and I can't see any threads but the drain opening itself is about 2" but the overall size of the drain is 3". It looks to me as if it was a drop in with putty as the anchoring agent. Hope this is of some help.
