How big is a pro rangetop?#
A pro rangetop is a built-in cooking surface, 30 to 48 inches wide and only 8 to 12 inches in body height, that drops into a countertop over cabinets. The table below lists the 30-inch, 36-inch, and 48-inch versions.
Pro rangetop dimensions by configuration#
| Configuration | Width (in) | Height (in) | Depth (in) | Best for |

Installation clearances for a pro rangetop#
- Countertop cutout width: 29–47 in in of countertop cutout a pro rangetop drops into, a little under the nominal width.
- Below-counter clearance: 8–12 in in the pro rangetop body drops below the counter, so leave room above a cabinet or oven.
- Side clearance: 6–12 in in of counter the maker wants beside a pro rangetop to a wall for safe pan handling.
- Gas and power: A pro rangetop needs a gas line and, for spark ignition, a nearby outlet at the back of the cabinet.
Will your pro rangetop fit? Clearances and door swing#
A rangetop is a drop-in surface, so the fit is a countertop cutout plus room below, not a door arc. Cut the counter 29 to 47 inches wide depending on the nominal size — a bit under the face width — and confirm the body's 8 to 12 inch drop below the counter clears whatever sits beneath, whether a cabinet, a drawer, or a wall oven. Unlike a slide-in range, a rangetop has no oven of its own, so the space below is yours to plan. Leave 6 to 12 inches of counter beside it to a wall for safe pan handling, as the maker specifies. Because it uses gas burners with electric spark ignition, run a gas line to the cabinet and place an outlet at the back for the igniters. Dry-fit the unit in the cutout before final hookup.

Pro rangetop sizes by type: 30-inch pro rangetop, 36-inch pro rangetop, 48-inch pro rangetop#
The three widths scale the burner count and the surface. The 30-inch rangetop, 25 to 28 inches deep, is the entry pro surface for a built-in cooktop with heavy burners over a cabinet or oven. The 36-inch version keeps the same 8 to 11 inch body but widens the surface for more burners on a larger island or run. The 48-inch rangetop, 26 to 29 inches deep, is the professional-kitchen size that adds a griddle or grill module alongside the burners. Choose width by burner count and cabinet space, then cut the counter to the slightly narrower cutout dimension.
Pro rangetop dimensions: common questions#
What is a rangetop versus a cooktop?#
A rangetop is a heavier pro-style surface with substantial burners and control knobs at the front, dropping deeper into the cabinet, while a cooktop is a slimmer surface with side or touch controls. Both are surface-only with no oven below.
What cutout does a 36-inch pro rangetop need?#
A 36-inch rangetop drops into a countertop cutout a little under its face width, within the 29 to 47 inch range the sizes span. Confirm the exact cutout on the model spec before cutting.
How wide is a pro rangetop?#
Rangetops come in 30, 36, and 48-inch widths. The 48-inch version is wide enough to add a griddle or grill module beside the burners.
How far does a rangetop drop below the counter?#
The body extends 8 to 12 inches below the countertop. Make sure that drop clears whatever sits underneath, since a rangetop has no oven of its own to fill the space.
How deep is a pro rangetop?#
Depth runs 25 to 29 inches. The 48-inch model is deepest at 26 to 29 inches to house its extra modules.
