How to measure for standard wall oven size

1. Measure for standard wall oven capacity

Expect around 2 to 3.5 cubic feet of interior space for a 24-inch-wide single wall oven and around 4 to 5 cubic feet for a 27 or 30-inch-wide single wall oven.

What are double wall oven dimensions?

Double wall ovens have the same width and depth as a single wall oven, but the height will be around 51 inches. Capacity will be double the single wall oven, so from 5 to 7 total combined cubic feet for 24-inch-wide wall ovens and 8 to 10 total combined cubic feet for 27 and 30-inch-wide wall ovens.

Both ovens are usually the exact same size, though there will be only one control panel for both ovens. If you’re looking for maximum cook space for your masterpieces, browse KitchenAid® double wall ovens with 10 cubic feet of capacity. Learn more about the best double wall oven options for your kitchen.

How can I measure my current wall oven cabinet dimensions?

For a proper fit, carefully measure the width, depth and height of your cabinet opening following the steps below. Always reference the manufacturer’s cutout dimensions for your model to ensure correct installation.

Cabinet opening with a width measurement line

1. Measure for wall oven cabinet width

Use measuring tape to measure from the left inside cabinet edge to the right inside cabinet edge. Keep in mind that the oven should be a fairly tight fit in the cutout.

Cabinet opening with depth measurement line

2. Measure for standard wall oven depth

Measure from the back of the opening to the front of the cabinets. Keep in mind the oven door will extend past the cabinets. Make sure there is at least 20 inches of open space in front of the oven so you can fully open the door to load and unload your food.

Cabinet opening with height measurement line

3. Measure for wall oven cabinet height

Measure from the top of the cabinet opening to the bottom of the cabinet opening. Again, a tighter fit is ideal. Once you understand the dimensional requirements, consider how cooking capacity differs between single and double wall ovens to make the best choice for your household.

Tip: place the top of the wall oven at eye level

When deciding how high above the floor to install the wall oven, the only requirement is that there’s enough clearance for the door to fully open. An ideal height would be for the top oven to open below the waist and the console to be at eye level for whoever uses it most.
