Where to put it?

Dividing the traditional kitchen stove into a cooktop and built-in oven has expanded the possibilities for creating the most convenient and ergonomic kitchen. We have a lot of options for the location of the oven. Installing the oven above the countertop level has become widespread. However, this placement of the stove is controversial. Questions are asked about the necessity and feasibility similar layout. There are statements that this is no longer fashionable and does not justify itself at all. Is it so?

Let's start with the fact that this has nothing to do with fashion. When the first independent ovens appeared (and this happened more than half a century ago), manufacturers immediately began to recommend high placement. Because this position of the stove is really convenient.

From magazines of the 60s

Having a high oven position has other benefits. It is much easier to wash. It is less dangerous for children - Small child will not reach the door handle and will not be able to open it. Putting heavy dishes (such as large birds) in and out of the oven is much easier and, again, safer.

At what height should the oven be built?

Let's focus on control panels oven located above the oven chamber. The most convenient ovens are those built in so that the control panel is higher than the waist of the person who will cook on it, but not higher than his eye level.

At what height should the oven be placed? No higher than eye level

Undercounter oven

Many people prefer the more familiar option, embedding oven under the kitchen countertop. As a rule, the oven is placed under hob, but this is not required. If the location of the stove in another place is more convenient, do not abandon this idea.

The oven can be offset relative to the hob

Installing an oven under the countertop is most appropriate if there are few work surfaces in the kitchen. In a compact room, tall cabinets (or column cabinets) are impractical. After all, the smaller the kitchen set, the more acute the shortage of space for work. It is better to build the oven not into a pencil case, but into a standard cabinet - this will create an additional work area in the kitchen.

In a small kitchen, it is better to build the oven under the countertop, without cluttering the space with pencil cases and high cabinets

Where to install the oven? In a very small kitchen there are no other options - only under the countertop

An oven is built under the hob in classic and country kitchens. It is believed that this adds traditionality to the interior. In fact, The height of the oven is not as important as its design. If the oven is made in retro style, then no matter where it is built in, it will be appropriate everywhere.

In a country-style kitchen, the oven can also be built higher

Where to install the oven?

1. In the pencil case. This good decision, but only for a spacious kitchen.

If there are enough work surfaces, the oven can be built into a tall cabinet

Where to install the oven? In a large kitchen - in a pencil case

The kitchen is large, so placing the oven in the cabinet justifies itself

Oven cabinet option

2. To the island. In a large kitchen equipped with an island, the oven can be built directly into it. Suitable for those families where the oven is rarely used and where there are no small children.

Where should the oven be located? For example, on the island

3. In a high cabinet. This scheme is quite popular in our country. The oven is built into a high cabinet located at the edge of the unit.

How is this option better than a pencil case? Because there is an additional surface here. Yes, it is inconvenient to use it as a workspace, but it is ideal for placing various kitchen appliances, accessories, jars, sugar bowls, vases, etc. This layout is most suitable for medium-sized kitchens without an acute shortage of work surfaces, but also without an excess of them.

High cabinet or low oven cabinet

Cabinet with oven

In the photo above we see a lack of work surfaces. The oven should have been built under the countertop, and the cabinet in which it is now located should have been built into standard height. It would be more rational

By installing the oven above the usual level, the cooking process becomes much more comfortable. In our article you will see different variants cabinets for the oven and find out what dimensions experts recommend for creating a module.

Two high modules are designed for mounting equipment. One cabinet is filled with a refrigerator and a storage shelf; the second has a built-in oven at countertop level and spacious shelves that cover the fronts.

Pencil case dimensions

Approximate dimensions of the cabinet (HxWxD): 2040x600x550 mm.

The area of the room and design features make adjustments to the overall dimensions of the cabinet.

Dimensions for installation. Gorenje ovens are purchased complete with similar installation instructions. The graphic example shows the Gorenje B2000P2 model.

1. Custom cabinet

This option is the most popular among buyers, since the master takes into account all the details of the layout during the kitchen manufacturing process. The main thing is to choose the equipment in advance and provide accurate data on the dimensions to the specialist.

A modern set without technology. All sockets for appliances are pre-wired. The next stage is installation.

Combination beige colour and wood textures on corner kitchen. In one pencil case there was a built-in oven and a microwave oven on a separate shelf.

White kitchen in minimalist style. The microwave oven and oven are built into a tall cabinet that closes the composition of the set.

Bright turquoise corner-shaped furniture. The independent oven set was installed at a convenient height level.

Strict interior, minimum details. For such a kitchen, it is better to choose built-in appliances.

The pencil case with the oven is located next to hob, thus the cooking area is concentrated in one part, leaving a large working area.

2. Factory pencil cases

Kitchen manufacturers offer customers ready-made options furniture for built-in appliances. The main difficulty is to ensure that the dimensions for installation coincide with the actual dimensions of the furniture. That is, you will have to do the opposite - choose an oven for certain parameters, or adjust the furniture during installation.

Remember, the control panel should be above waist level, and the installation height of the oven should not exceed your eye level, otherwise operating the device during cooking will not be comfortable.

A unified style and competent layout allows this kitchen to look organic, despite the high module for appliances and the variety of colors in the furniture area. The refrigerator and pencil case close the furniture on both sides, forming a complete image in the kitchen design.

In traditional kitchen ovens The oven is combined with a hob. But not all housewives are satisfied with this option for organizing their workspace. To make the cooking process as convenient as possible, and the kitchen interior stylish and compact, special furniture is used to build in ovens.

Features and benefits of a kitchen with a built-in oven

An oven cabinet is a structure designed to accommodate an oven. She may be part of furniture set, or purchased separately.

The advantages of a kitchen interior with a built-in oven include:

visual appeal - such an interior looks much more elegant than a kitchen with a conventional oven;
saving useful space;
the ability to organize a “work triangle” (food preparation area) in a way that is convenient for the owners of the house;
practicality - such furniture often combines several functions at once. For example, it can serve as a storage system.

But this solution also has features that must be taken into account when choosing:

the cost of built-in appliances complete with furniture is higher than traditional ones;
if the equipment is rearranged or fails, problems may arise: the oven will have to be changed along with the cabinet, since it will be difficult to find a structure that is suitable in size - usually the furniture is selected to fit the equipment, and not vice versa.

Types of kitchen cabinet designs for built-in ovens

To embed equipment, two types of furniture are used:

floor cabinets;
cabinets.

The cabinet for the built-in oven allows you to place it at a height of no more than 20 cm from the floor. For most housewives, this is a familiar option.

The oven case involves placing equipment on one of its shelves and has the following advantages:

allows you to set the oven at the optimal height;
makes it possible to make it inaccessible to small children;
Ideal for people who have difficulty bending.

Pencil cases are not suitable for cramped kitchens - they look too bulky there. In this case, it is better to choose a taller floor cabinet.

Depending on the shape, oven furniture can be:

straight - in the form of a rectangle. Typically, such designs are part of the furniture composition of the set;
corner – made in the form of triangles or trapezoids and allow you to install equipment in a corner.

Particular attention should be paid to the material from which the cabinet is made. It must not only withstand the impressive weight of the equipment, but also be heat-resistant and safe for humans.

To make structures for the oven use:

Chipboard is inexpensive and does not have high performance properties;
MDF is a material more High Quality. Furniture made from it is durable and does not deform under the influence of steam;
natural wood is a material that requires special care. It is used for the production of oven cabinets in rare cases.

Fibreboard or plywood are used for the manufacture of rear walls and bent elements of the facade.

The material itself and its coatings should not contain toxic synthetic substances: when exposed to heat, they enter the air and can cause serious poisoning.

How to choose an oven cabinet - what requirements should you make?

Built-in ovens can be:

gas;
electric.

Gas ovens are more expensive, but pay for themselves faster - gas is cheaper than electricity. However, the heat is not distributed so evenly in them and some products are not baked.

In any case, the furniture must be equipped with a ventilation system - a grille or special openings. Some models are made without a back wall.

Electric models are not economical and require high-quality wiring, but dishes in them are cooked evenly, for which they have received recognition from most housewives.

It is important to choose the right size of furniture. If this is an oven cabinet, then its height is usually from 65 to 80 cm.

Depending on the design, this parameter includes:

height of the oven box – 59.5 or 60 cm (standard);
height of legs/base – 10-12 cm;
tabletop thickness – 2-4 cm;
drawer height – 10-20 cm.

The depth of the cabinet is from 50 to 65 cm, depending on the model of the built-in equipment. Of this, about 10-13 cm is the overlap of the countertop on the body, which is necessary for stable placement of the oven. Width varies from 50 to 120 cm.

The sizes of kitchen cabinets are more variable; their depth and width are identical to the parameters of the cabinets, and the height can range from 160 to 220 cm.

The oven module should always be larger than the appliance itself to ensure free air circulation.

What can a cabinet for a built-in oven contain?

A cabinet for a built-in oven can combine the functions of other household appliances:

Microwave ovens (microwaves);
hobs.

An oven with a microwave function has gained wide popularity due to its practicality and convenience. It allows you to use the oven as a microwave, and modern models equipped with other operating modes - for example, defrosting, grilling, baking.

Structurally, this technique is an oven equipped with a magnetron - a microwave radiation generator.

Any oven can be combined with a hob. There are two options for this technique:

dependent set - in it the cabinet and panel have common system management;
independent - in this case, the oven and panel are purchased separately.

The dependent set looks stylish and harmonious, but is inferior to the independent one in practicality - if it breaks down, the entire structure fails. In addition, in the latter case, it is possible to choose equipment that meets the needs of the housewife.

Additional equipment for oven cabinets - storage and opening systems

Furniture under the oven can be used to store kitchen utensils.

For floor cabinets, the storage system is represented by an upper or lower drawer limited height. Because of this, only certain items can be stored in it. For example, frying pans and baking sheets.

A pencil case has more possibilities for organizing a storage system - in it it can be represented by open shelves, drawers and compartments with doors.

Typically, the oven is built into the middle of the structure, so the storage compartments are located at the bottom or top.

In closed sections of the cabinet-case they are used Various types door opening mechanisms:

swing doors are the simplest: the doors are attached to hinges and open towards you;
folding – horizontal system on hinges: open up or down;
lifting - open using gas lifts.

Rules for placing an oven cabinet in a kitchen set

To ensure that the oven cabinet fits harmoniously into the kitchen interior, is convenient and safe to use, follow the following recommendations when placing it:

follow the rule of the “work triangle” - a space limited by three points: oven, sink and refrigerator. The total sum of its sides should not exceed 6 meters;
pick up comfortable height technology. The best option– from 20 to 80 cm above floor level;
Do not place the oven close to the refrigerator: this may lead to damage to one of the appliances;
the distance between the sink and the oven should be less than 45 cm to avoid short circuits;
the gas oven should be located no further than 1.2 m from the pipe - the longer the hose, the less reliable it is;
think over the opening zone. It should allow you to freely remove the baking sheet from the oven.

Stages and rules for installing an oven in a kitchen set

Installation of a built-in oven consists of several stages:

checking equipment for functionality by connecting to the network;
installing the cabinet in the right place;
checking the electrical wiring - it must have a sufficient level of resistance and be grounded. It is desirable to have a circuit breaker that is triggered by voltage surges;
if the stove is gas, check the pipes. They must be intact, without damage;
placing the oven in a furniture niche. If the cabinet is equipped with a back wall, then it is necessary to make holes in it for the wires;

I recently selected a cabinet-table for a built-in household appliances, or rather a cabinet for a built-in oven. It turned out that this is not as simple as it seems at first. And all due to the lack of truthful information about the dimensions of built-in ovens. I’ll tell you what I found out and how not to make mistakes with the oven installation.

The size of the table is not the size of the niche

It so happened that I needed a separate lower cabinet (table) for the built-in oven. Moreover, the depth of the cabinet should not exceed 550 mm. As it turned out, it's not that simple.

In the Stolplit store, similar cabinets turned out to be a little larger, their depth is 563 mm, which did not suit me.

Found the table at the Hoff store. There are similar tables for ovens with a depth of 510 or 550 mm. Size (WxHxD): 600x820x510 mm. The niche of this cabinet is 60x56.8x51 (HxWxD), although the depth of the table for embedding does not matter (more on that below).

We calculate the size of the niche from the size of the furniture

So, a standard cabinet-table for built-in appliances has standard width, in dimensions, 600 mm. The depth of the cabinets is different, 563 mm, 550 mm, 540 mm, there are even cabinets with a depth of 450 mm.

The overall width dimension of 600 mm does not mean that this is the width of the cabinet niche. It will be less than two times the thickness of the cabinet walls.

It means that façade panel The oven will fit perfectly when built into the walls of a cabinet-table with dimensions of a width of 600 mm.

In the photo I showed the name of this oven. And instead of making a conclusion, don’t believe everything they write, even check the store consultant, preferably with your own tape measure.
