Choosing the right size cabinet for your grill
When installing a drop-in or built-in grill or appliance, the manufacturer provides specific dimensions, including the Cutout Dimensions. Once you have these dimensions, refer to our cabinet sizes chart below to ensure that your appliance's cutout dimensions do not exceed the maximum cutout dimensions of the cabinet.
During the ordering process, you will provide Matchless Cabinet with details of your appliance's make and model. This allows us to precisely cut the front trim and countertops (if included) to fit your chosen appliance.
