Hello!

I have to plan a mini studio kitchen, where due to the special spatial conditions I have to plan a small L-shaped kitchen measuring 1.5x1.8m. Everything that fits in should go in there, so a domino cooktop, dishwasher, corner sink, etc., oven. Therefore, I want to place a tall cabinet at one end of the kitchen with a refrigerator and oven, which I have to somewhat "customize". According to the online planner, this option is not available, but the manuals of the planned oven and refrigerator allow the installation of the appliances in the same cabinet. I have planned Veddinge in white and want to build the cabinet as follows (from bottom to top):

8cm plinth
1.8 cm intermediate shelf
88cm niche for refrigerator (87.5cm built-in refrigerator with door-on-door mounting)
1.8 cm intermediate shelf
10cm cutlery drawer
60cm oven
10cm panel
1.2cm top side panel.

I want to solve the whole thing with Veddinge fronts in white and use a white 92cm Applad front from the Faktum reorder service as refrigerator cover. This then covers the 88cm niche for the refrigerator as well as the shelves above and below it.

I am of course aware that I will have to shorten a 200cm high corpus in height and will have to drill new holes for shelves and drawer rails at different heights because the changed heights of the installations will not match the hole grid.

Is the whole thing feasible? Above all, I am concerned about the height of the oven, which is between 110cm and 170cm in height. According to the official kitchen cabinets in the online planner, the oven is located at a height of 88cm to148cm.

Whether this is feasible now, I do not know, but regarding the installation height, the top rail should be at most shoulder height, preferably lower - otherwise it will be difficult to dangerous to operate the oven. How tall is the person who will be using it?

@nörgli: the tenant has not been decided yet, so I cannot answer that. the top rail will be at 150cm. of course, I could leave out the cutlery drawer, but then the kitchen would have no drawers at all or only the drawers possible with metod in the lowest part of the wall cabinets.

Does it have to be such a tall oven? Compact ovens are only about 45 cm high.

As far as I remember, you have to leave a few centimeters under the refrigerator, here the base is not meant, free for ventilation. you won’t get around the 100cm front there. you can save yourself the hassle with the old doors. it should still work with drawers above and the oven. since the fronts are supposed to be cheap in a rental apartment, I assume this also applies to the oven. the small combination ovens are more expensive.

I wouldn’t shorten the 200cm cabinet with so little space either. you have additional storage space at the top. you just have to make sure that something is cut out at the back so that the air can escape or so that there is circulation.

also pay attention to the contribution of bubbel here:

The fronts for FAKTUM are 2 mm narrower. In a cabinet mixed with Metodfronten, this could be noticeable. Can't you replace a base cabinet with an under-counter refrigerator? Then you would have the missing space in the tall cabinet.
