German term or phrase: abgemauert
This appears in specifications for the construction of duplexes and town homes in Germany. This part concerns the fixtures that will go in the bathrooms:

"Eine Ablage (abgemauert) unter den Spiegelschränken"

I understand that this is a sort of tray or shelf under the mirror cabinets.
