When you are having new granite countertops installed in
your home, you might think your decision-making is done after you chose your
granite slab. But there is still at least one more decision to make: what kind
of edge profile you want for your new counters. As an Apple Valley granite
fabricator and installer, we offer 12 different edge profile options. Some work
better than others, depending on what you are using your counters for or what
look you are trying to achieve.
Straight Edge
This type of edge profile is the most basic, but it’s nice
because it is so simple but elegant. This is a great option if you want most of
the focus to be on your granite, your cabinetry or some other focal point.
Half Inch Bevel
This type of granite edge profile is more subtle and has
more of an angle, but it is a good pick if you are going for a more modern look
for your kitchen or bathroom. This is an especially good choice for bathrooms,
especially if there is a smaller vanity. It adds an interesting element to the
look and feel of the room.
¾ Inch Bevel
This is an excellent edge profile to help show off your
granite, especially if the granite pattern appears to be “moving” with long and
wavy lines.
Half Bullnose
If you want to add more “drama” to your room, this is the
edge profile for you! It will show off the thickness and high quality of your
granite countertops. Plus, it is good for kitchens because the edge makes it
easier to wipe crumbs off of it and into your hand or a cleaning rag.
