Choose the oven first, then the cabinet. The oven's installation sheet gives the cutout width, height and depth, and the cabinet's opening must match it. Lily Ann's oven cabinets are 33 inches wide, 84 to 96 inches tall and 24 or 27 inches deep, each listing a 27 by 25-1/4 inch opening. A double wall oven needs a taller opening.

- Lily Ann oven cabinets are 33" wide, 84, 90, 93 or 96 inches tall, and 24" deep, with a 27"-deep option in some lines.
- Every one we checked lists a 27" W x 25-1/4" H opening. Compare it with your oven's cutout width, height and depth.
- Names do not match sizes. A "30-inch" oven and a "30-inch" cabinet are not a guaranteed fit.
- Single vs double: a double wall oven needs a much taller opening. We do not currently list a double oven cabinet.
- Match the height to your uppers: 84" with 30" wall cabinets, 90" with 36", 96" with 42".
- We also sell Forno built-in wall ovens, each with a cutout download on its product page. Check the fit either way.
What a Wall Oven Cabinet Is
A wall oven cabinet is a tall cabinet with an open box built into it, sized to hold a built-in oven at a comfortable height instead of under the cooktop. Storage sits above and below the oven. It runs from the floor to the same height as your other tall cabinets, so the oven looks like part of the kitchen rather than a separate appliance.
You will see it sold under several names: oven cabinet, wall oven cabinet, tall oven cabinet, single oven cabinet and double oven cabinet. They all describe the same idea. What changes between them is the size and position of the opening, and that opening is the only thing that decides whether your oven fits.
This matters because the cabinet and the oven are bought separately, often from different companies. Nobody checks one against the other for you. If you order the cabinet first and the oven second, you can end up with an oven that will not go in.
What Size Cabinet Do You Need for a Wall Oven?
Choose the oven first, then the cabinet. Lily Ann's oven cabinets are 33 inches wide, 84, 90, 93 or 96 inches tall, and 24 inches deep, with a 27-inch-deep option in some lines. Each listing states its oven opening. Compare that opening with the cutout size on your oven's installation sheet before you order.
Here are the real dimensions from our live product listings, checked on 13 September 2026. The opening is the space the oven slides into.

Dimensions as listed on lilyanncabinets.com, Sep 2026. Listings can change, so confirm the opening on the product page before you order. Prices are left out on purpose, because they change often.
Three things stand out. Every standard oven cabinet in the table is the same width. Height is the choice you make to match the rest of the kitchen. And every one has the same single opening, which is why the oven's own measurements, not the cabinet's name, settle the question.
How to Check That Your Oven Will Fit
Get the installation or cutout sheet for the exact oven model, not just the product name. Find the required cutout width, height and depth. Then compare each number with the opening and depth listed for the cabinet. If the oven needs a bigger opening than the cabinet lists, that cabinet will not take that oven as sold.
- Pick the oven model first. Write down the full model number. Two ovens with the same name size can need different openings.
- Download its cutout sheet. Appliance makers publish the cutout size, the clearances and the electrical or gas location in the installation guide. On the Forno wall ovens we sell, the product page has a download called Dimensions & Cut-Out Specifications.
- Compare width. The oven's required cutout width against the cabinet's listed opening width.
- Compare height. The same for height. A double oven needs a much taller opening than a single one.
- Compare depth. The oven's required depth against the cabinet's depth, remembering that power or gas connections may need space behind it.
- Check the support and ventilation notes. The oven maker says what the oven must sit on and how much air it needs. Follow those instructions exactly.
- If any number does not line up, stop and ask. Call us with the oven model and the cabinet you are looking at before you order either one.
We do not give a general cutout size on this page, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Cutouts are set by the oven maker, they vary by brand and model, and a wrong one causes real problems: an oven that will not slide in, one that is not supported properly, or one without the air gap it was designed to have. The oven's own sheet is the only number to trust.
Why the Name on the Oven Is Not Its Cutout
The size in an oven's name, such as 24, 27 or 30 inches, is a class name, not the size of the hole it needs. The front trim is usually wider than the part that goes into the cabinet, and the cabinet's opening is narrower than the cabinet itself because of its sides and frame. That is why a 30-inch oven and a 30-inch cabinet are not a guaranteed match.
Our oven cabinets show the same gap between outside size and opening size. The box is 33 inches wide, but the listed opening is 27 inches wide. The difference is the cabinet's own sides and face frame.
So when someone asks whether an oven will fit a certain cabinet, the honest answer is always the same: compare the oven's cutout numbers with the cabinet's opening numbers. Names and nominal sizes do not settle it.
Single vs Double Oven Cabinets
A single oven cabinet has one opening for one oven. A double oven cabinet has a much taller opening for a stacked double wall oven, or for an oven with a microwave or warming drawer above it. Lily Ann's oven cabinets are single-opening designs. We do not currently list a double oven cabinet.
| Â | Single oven cabinet | Double oven cabinet |
|---|---|---|
| Holds | One built-in oven | A double wall oven, or an oven plus a second appliance |
| Opening | One shorter opening | One tall opening, or two stacked ones |
| Storage | More, usually doors above and drawers below | Less, because the appliance takes most of the height |
| At Lily Ann | Yes, in 84, 90, 93 and 96 inch heights | Not listed as of Sep 2026 |
If you have your heart set on a double wall oven, choose it first and read its cutout height. That tells you how tall the opening must be. Every oven cabinet we list has a single 27 by 25-1/4 inch opening, so a double oven will not fit in any of them.
We do sell double wall ovens, including the Forno Asti 30-inch double electric wall oven. The same rule applies to it as to any other oven: its cutout sheet decides the opening it needs, so check it against any cabinet before you buy.
Choosing the Height
Match the oven cabinet to your other tall cabinets and wall cabinets so the tops line up. Our size guide pairs 84-inch tall cabinets with 30-inch wall cabinets, 90-inch with 36-inch, and 96-inch with 42-inch. The oven opening does not move up with the extra height; the taller cabinets simply have more storage.
That pairing comes from our kitchen cabinet dimensions size guide, and it is the simplest way to keep a straight line across the top of the kitchen. Measure your ceiling first. A 96-inch cabinet needs a ceiling tall enough to take it, plus any crown molding you plan to add.
The 93-inch Colorado Shaker White size is an in-between option. It is useful when a 96-inch cabinet will not clear the ceiling or a soffit but you still want more storage than a 90-inch cabinet gives.
Height also affects how the oven sits in the kitchen. The listings give the size of the opening but not how high off the floor it sits, so if the oven's height matters to you, ask us before ordering rather than guessing from the photo.
Choosing the Depth: 24 or 27 Inches
Most oven cabinets are 24 inches deep, the same as a standard tall cabinet. Some of our lines also offer a 27-inch-deep version. Pick the deeper one when your oven's installation sheet needs more depth than a 24-inch cabinet gives. A 27-inch cabinet will stand 3 inches further forward than a 24-inch-deep cabinet beside it.
The deep version is listed in the Shaker Off-White pantry and oven cabinets collection, for example the 96-inch-tall 33 x 96 x 27 inch oven cabinet. Its opening is the same as the 24-inch version. Only the depth changes.
Decide on depth before you plan the rest of the run. Three inches is easy to see where the oven cabinet meets the countertop, so plan for it on purpose rather than finding out on installation day.
Where to Put a Wall Oven Cabinet
A wall oven cabinet usually goes at the end of a cabinet run, because it is full height and would break up a countertop in the middle. Good spots are beside the refrigerator, at the end of an L-shaped run, or in a tall bank with pantry cabinets. Leave counter space near it for setting down hot dishes.
- At the end of a run. The tall cabinet ends the countertop neatly instead of splitting it in two.
- In a tall bank. Next to a pantry or utility cabinet of the same height, it reads as one wall of storage. Our pantry cabinets come in the same 84, 90 and 96 inch heights.
- Beside a landing spot. A stretch of counter near the oven gives you somewhere to put a hot tray down. This is a planning choice, not a code number, so plan it into your layout.
- Away from tight door swings. Check that the oven door, the cabinet doors and any nearby refrigerator or dishwasher door can all open without hitting each other.
What Lily Ann Sells for a Wall Oven
We sell ready-to-assemble oven cabinets in many door styles, in 33-inch widths and 84, 90, 93 and 96 inch heights. We also sell built-in wall ovens from Forno. We do not currently list a double oven cabinet, and we do not claim any particular oven fits any particular cabinet. Check the opening against the oven's cutout sheet.
- Oven cabinets by collection. Start with White Shaker Elite pantry and oven cabinets or Colorado White Shaker pantry and oven cabinets. Each collection's pantry and oven category lists its oven cabinets alongside its pantry and utility cabinets.
- Built-in ovens. Our built-in ovens page lists Forno single and double wall ovens. Each product page has its cutout download.
- Seeing the finish first. A tall cabinet is a big block of colour, so order a full-size sample before committing to the finish.
If you are unsure which cabinet suits the oven you have chosen, send us the oven's model number and the cabinet listing. Checking the numbers before an order is much easier than returning a tall cabinet afterwards.
The Short Version
A wall oven cabinet is a tall cabinet with a box for a built-in oven. Buy the oven first, get its cutout sheet, and compare the width, height and depth with the opening the cabinet lists. Our oven cabinets are 33 inches wide, 84 to 96 inches tall, and 24 or 27 inches deep, all with a single oven opening. For a double oven, you will need a cabinet with a taller opening than any we currently list.
