Microwave Niche & Trim

How do you handle a non-drawer microwave in cabinetry?

Appliance Housing

For standard microwaves, we build a "microwave niche" with a coordinated stainless steel trim kit. The cabinet must be 2" wider than the unit itself to allow the trim kit to vent hot air away from the wood carcass.

Vented housing built 2" wider than the unit to allow heat dissipation away from wood.
