        "text": "Switching to a deep farmhouse or apron-front sink requires significant cabinet modifications. Standard base cabinets feature a top false drawer panel that must be cut out or completely removed to expose the sink face. Because fireclay and enameled cast-iron apron sinks can weigh over one hundred pounds empty, custom wood blocking or heavy-duty steel framing must be built inside the cabinet base to support the basin securely before plumbing connection.",

        "description": "Yes, but it requires removing the cabinet face below the counter and building custom internal structural framing to support the substantial weight of the sink."
