Stainless Steel Bottom Grid for the QT-811 and QU-811 Small Bowl
The Karran GR-6016 is a stainless steel bottom grid sized and shaped for the small bowl of the QT-811 top mount and QU-811 undermount sinks, keeping dishes and cookware elevated off the bowl floor while water drains freely below.
Key Features
• Bowl-specific fit — engineered for the small bowl of the QT-811 and QU-811 sinks, not a universal grid trimmed to size.
• Stainless steel construction — the grid's frame and rods resist the daily exposure to water, soap, and food residue common in an active prep bowl.
• Elevated floor platform — raises dishes and utensils off the sink surface so water and debris drain beneath rather than pooling under your load.
• Surface protection — direct contact between cookware and the quartz or stainless bowl floor is reduced, limiting scratches and impact marks over time.
The Right Fit for a Two-Bowl Sink Layout
The QT-811 and QU-811 are unequal double-bowl sinks — a larger main bowl paired with a smaller secondary bowl. The small bowl carries its own workflow: rinsing produce, soaking a single pan, or handling prep tasks while the large bowl is in use. Because the two bowls differ in size, the large and small bowls each require their own grid. The GR-6016 is the grid matched to the small bowl. It drops in without trimming or adjustment and sits flush with the floor, leaving the bowl fully usable while protecting the surface underneath.
Stainless Steel in a Wet Environment
Stainless steel is a practical material choice for a grid that lives at the bottom of a sink bowl. It handles continuous water exposure without warping or deteriorating and wipes clean without special products. The rods are spaced to let water and fine debris drain past rather than collect on the grid surface, which keeps cleaning straightforward. When the grid needs a deeper rinse, it lifts out in one piece.
Who This Grid Is For
This grid is a direct fit for anyone who owns a Karran QT-811 or QU-811 sink and wants protection for the small bowl. It suits homeowners looking to preserve the finish of a newer sink, designers specifying a complete sink setup from the start, and cabinet shops or contractors sourcing accessories alongside a QT-811 or QU-811 installation. Because fit is bowl-specific, anyone upgrading the large bowl should look at the separate large-bowl grid for these models instead.
Does this grid fit both the QT-811 and QU-811?
Yes. The GR-6016 is listed as compatible with the small bowl of both the QT-811 top mount and the QU-811 undermount. The bowl dimensions are the same across the two mount styles, so the same grid fits both.
Does the GR-6016 also fit the large bowl of the QT-811 or QU-811?
No. The large bowl is a different size and requires its own grid. The GR-6016 is sized for the small bowl only.
Will this grid work in other Karran sink models?
The GR-6016 is published as a fit for the QT-811 and QU-811 small bowl. Fit is model- and bowl-specific in Karran's grid line, so it should not be assumed to fit other models without checking Karran's compatibility tables for those sinks.
Is the grid included when purchasing a QT-811 or QU-811 sink?
The GR-6016 is sold separately. If your sink arrived as a -PK1 bundle, check the stated pack contents for that SKU to confirm which accessories were included.
A Simple Addition That Protects a Daily-Use Bowl
A properly fitted grid is one of the lowest-effort ways to extend the life of a sink bowl — it absorbs the daily contact that gradually marks an unprotected surface, and it costs far less than refinishing or replacing a bowl later. The GR-6016 puts that protection exactly where it belongs: the small bowl of the QT-811 and QU-811.
