Outdoor Dining

There is one thing that will always keep guests happy: cold beverages. Which you can enjoy without leaving the patio by choosing Nicolock Paving Stones. Our selection of outdoor dining supplies includes an assortment of sinks, bar counters and drink coolers. Even at a hot midsummer cookout, you’ll stay cool in more ways than one with our high-quality Summerset outdoor entertainment furnishings.

Advantages of Our Outdoor Sinks

The outdoor sink options from Nicolock bring together durable materials, smart design, and everyday convenience for outdoor kitchens and bar areas. They create a reliable work zone for prep and cleanup while matching the look and feel of Nicolock outdoor living spaces.

• Stainless Steel Construction: Uses outdoor-rated stainless steel that resists corrosion, rust, and discoloration from rain, sun, and changing temperatures.
• Built-in Design: Integrates cleanly into grill islands, bar centers, and stone countertops for a polished, professional layout that feels planned, not pieced together.
• Large Basin Capacity: Offers ample space for dishes, prep work, and utensils, with popular options including a 15 x 15 x 6 inch capacity and a larger 19-inch model.
• Versatile Faucet System: Pairs a sturdy outdoor faucet with a double-handle valve and stopper/strainer to support rinsing, washing, and quick cleanup during busy gatherings.
• Simple Installation: Supports drop-in or undermount setups so contractors and homeowners can match the sink style to their chosen countertop and outdoor kitchen layout.
• Consistent Performance Outdoors: Uses components rated for outdoor use, so the sink continues to function smoothly through seasons of frequent entertaining and everyday tasks.
• Easy Day-to-Day Care: Smooth, nonporous surfaces make it straightforward to wipe down the bowl and faucet, helping the sink stay clean and ready for the next get-together.

How to Choose an Outdoor Sink

Selecting the right outdoor sink depends on your outdoor kitchen layout, how often you entertain, and the tasks you handle outside. Considering these areas before you buy helps you choose a sink that feels natural to use and supports the way you live outdoors.

• Installation Type:
  • Drop-In: Works well for many grill islands and bar stations, since the rim rests on the countertop and typically allows for quicker, more flexible installation.
  • Undermount: Creates a sleek, flush edge with solid surface countertops, making it easy to wipe spills straight into the bowl and maintain a clean prep area.
• Size and Capacity:
  • Consider the number of guests you usually host and how much prep you complete outside, since larger basins handle more dishes and cookware at once.
  • Bigger options, such as 19-inch styles, fit spacious islands and frequent entertaining, while compact 15-inch models suit smaller patios and bar counters.
• Water Supply and Drainage:
  • Confirm that your planned sink location allows easy connection to hot and cold water lines, or to a cold-water-only setup if that better matches your needs.
  • Plan a proper drain route and shutoff access so the system can be serviced and winterized in accordance with local conditions and building guidelines.
• Material and Finish:
  • Choose outdoor-rated stainless steel for strong resistance to rust, staining, and everyday wear from cookware, utensils, and frequent washing.
  • A brushed or satin finish helps hide small marks and water spots, keeping the sink looking fresh alongside your Nicolock pavers, walls, and kitchen components.
• Fit with Your Design:
  • Match the sink style to nearby grills, refrigerators, and storage so the full kitchen feels coordinated and efficient during prep and serving.
  • Place the sink near main prep zones and trash access, which shortens walking distance and keeps traffic flowing smoothly while guests gather outside.

Beverage Station & Outdoor Sink Add-Ons

If you’re using our outdoor ovens and grills, a good outdoor kitchen sink will help you cook up a storm. A 15-inch Drop-In Sink and Faucet Combo can easily be installed on most patio kitchen islands, while the 19-inch undermount outdoor sink goes underneath countertops. Both sinks are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a double handle valve and stopper/strainer. Just connect a waterline to get hot water for cleaning dishes or cold water for a quick refreshment.

Keep Those Beverages Cold with an Outdoor Bar & Sink Combo

When you want to serve up everyone’s favorite drink, we’ll help keep them chilled. A Summerset Beverage Center is the perfect outdoor bar and sink combo with a 40-pound ice chest, bottle opener, condiment tray and other hosting essentials. Even the traditional cooler takes on a new meaning when it’s from Nicolock. Add the 17-inch Small Outdoor Ice Chest to your outdoor kitchen to hold beverages for small gatherings or the 28-inch Drop-In Kitchen Island Cooler to host the whole neighborhood.
