Appliance Sizes

Answers about cabinet and kitchen appliance dimensions

Kitchen Appliance Planning

When designing a kitchen or purchasing new appliances for an existing kitchen, it is critical to understand appliance sizes to ensure that appliances and cabinets will work together cohesively, compliment each other and make sure that appliances fit in between cabinet runs, walls, and doorways. Key questions include:

  • Do I have enough room between cabinet runs for the width of my refrigerator and/or freestanding range?
  • Do I have exactly enough room between cabinets for my slide-in range?
  • If I have appliances across from an island or in a galley style kitchen, do I have enough room for appliance door swing? Do I need to move my island to allow for more room?
  • If I do not buy a counter-depth refrigerator, will my standard refrigerator protrude too far into a doorway or walkway?
