COUNTERTOP SIZING GUIDELINES FOR WALL INSTALLATIONS

While it is always recommended that eld templates be used to exactly determine countertop sizes on outdoor

cabinet layouts, the dimensions above, and following rules will be helpful in planning and costing countertop

installations:

1. Depth of counter, with a 31/44" nominal overhang, will be 34-31/44" when 4" llers (VFLR4) are used against

house walls. The depth will be 30-31/44" when no llers are used. Note: Fillers must be used if a grill is installed in

the cabinet run.

2. Notches in the countertop front edge (11/42" x 1-11/42") are required at all grill, side burner, and wok burner

cutouts.

3. Total width of countertop modules is determined by adding up the width of each cabinet and ller, in the run, and

adding 31/44" for each end overhang, and 3/4" for each back panel (if a 90° layout has exposed (island) backs. No

dimension should be added for side panels (VSP30), as they t ush into the cabinet end.

4. Countertop thickness should be 1-11/44". Any thicker countertop will require that grills, wok burners and side

burners be shimmed (shims locally supplied), to install ush with the tops.
