jhawk635 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Does anyone know what the standard overhang is for a bar? I want it to be comfortable when people are sitting at the bar. Also what should the total top width be? Any insight is greatly appreciated. JHawk Home Designer Pro 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 This type of question is often easily and quickly answered with a Google search. Try "kitchen bartop overhang". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayNine Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The bar top overhang should be a minimum of 8-1/2 inches and could be as much as 10 inches so your knees do not hit the bar front. For our extra tall customers the 10 inch overhang maybe necessary. http://www.hardwoodsincorporated.com/bar-dimensions.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhawk635 Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Thanks for the comments. I take your recommendation and did some google searching and found lots of interesting comments on it. It really seems that 12"+ may be really a good starting place. Of course I will need corbels to support it. Lots to consider. JHawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
