Description
This extended-width DXF template combines the generous 60-inch backsplash span with a wide 36x24-inch horizontal window opening, creating an ideal solution for contemporary kitchens that emphasize natural light and open views. The 30-inch height provides standard partial-height coverage while the wide format accommodates expansive sink counter areas, double-bowl configurations, or asymmetrical window placements common in modern kitchen designs. Professional fabricators appreciate this template for upscale installations where both extended counter space and generous window size are design priorities. The wider window opening showcases stone materials beautifully while the 60-inch overall width provides flexibility for window positioning. This configuration is particularly effective in kitchens with garden or landscape views where maximizing visual connection to outdoor spaces is essential.

Installation Overview
Extended-width backsplashes with large window openings require meticulous planning and careful installation technique. Begin with comprehensive field measurements verifying both overall wall dimensions and window frame position. A 60-inch backsplash with a 36-inch window cutout leaves limited material on the sides, so verify structural integrity of the remaining stone. Apply construction adhesive in strategic locations that support the material without interfering with window trim installation. The significant size and weight demand a minimum two-person installation team with appropriate lifting equipment. Use temporary support bracing during adhesive curing to prevent sagging, particularly important given the large window opening that reduces structural mass. Install window casing and trim after the stone is fully set, creating clean finished reveals.
CNC Cutting Notes
This template presents specific CNC programming challenges due to the combination of extended width and large window opening. Ensure comprehensive support across the entire 60-inch span, paying particular attention to areas adjacent to the window opening where material may be less supported. Program the 36-inch horizontal window span with radiused internal corners, minimum 1/4-inch radius, to prevent stress concentration. The long straight edges of the window opening are susceptible to micro-chipping, so use sharp diamond tooling and conservative feed rates of 70-90 inches per minute for granite and quartz. Complete perimeter cuts before final depth passes to maintain material stability. After cutting, carefully inspect edge quality along the extended horizontal window edges where tool deflection is most likely to occur.
Material Compatibility
Compatible with all standard countertop materials in 2cm and 3cm thicknesses. The 60-inch width with 36-inch window span requires careful material selection considering both structural requirements and aesthetic goals. Book-matched materials create stunning visual effects across the wide window opening. For materials with linear veining, consider grain direction to create visual balance. The template fits within standard slab dimensions but requires thoughtful blank layout to minimize waste. Consider material weight carefully, particularly for 3cm fabrication where a 30x60 inch piece can exceed 150 pounds. Engineered quartz performs exceptionally well in this application due to consistent strength characteristics across the large window span.
