Doug Mockett 6" Diameter Putty Trash Grommet 1"H, - TM1-93

A Putty Countertop Trash Grommet Built to Blend Into Neutral Surfaces

This Doug Mockett TM1-93 countertop trash grommet installs into a 6-inch bore to create a finished waste opening that passes scraps from the counter into a bin below, while the putty finish keeps it low-profile against beige, almond, and neutral-toned countertops.

Key Features

• Putty finish plastic construction pairs with beige, almond, and off-white countertop surfaces for a discreet look.
• 6-inch bore diameter sets the countertop cut required for installation.
• 6-3/4-inch flange diameter overlaps the bore edge to create a finished, flush surround.
• 5-7/8-inch inside diameter defines the usable pass-through opening for waste.
• 1-inch liner depth suits standard countertop thicknesses without projecting below the surface.

Putting Waste Where It Belongs

A countertop trash grommet is a simple piece of infrastructure that changes how a prep area works. Instead of sweeping scraps into a cupped hand or walking to a bin across the kitchen, the cook sweeps directly into the grommet opening and waste drops into a bin mounted underneath. The TM1-93 is built for that workflow, and the putty finish is the detail that makes it work visually on a countertop that would make a white or black grommet stand out. Neutral laminate, almond solid surface, and tan-toned stone countertops all read as the natural home for a putty-finish insert.

Construction and Fit

The liner is plastic in a putty color, shaped so the 6-3/4-inch flange sits on top of the countertop surface while the liner drops into the bore and holds the grommet in position. The 1-inch depth keeps the unit within the thickness of a standard laminate or solid-surface top. Because the bore is 6 inches and the inside pass-through is 5-7/8 inches, the liner wall is thin enough to maximize the opening without leaving a raw cut edge exposed. The bin below is not included and is sold separately.

Where It Fits Best

This grommet is suited to kitchen prep counters, island surfaces, and built-in workstations where a neutral countertop finish makes the putty color the right match. It also works in office and craft room installations where an almond or beige work surface is the background. Cabinet shops and countertop fabricators installing in homes with neutral or vintage-toned kitchens will find the putty finish a closer match than white or stainless, which tend to draw the eye on warm-toned surfaces.
