Hi Heather, I'm sorry this is a bit late. Hopefully you were given some information from Lacanche about this already. But, if not I used the island spacer between my walls and my backsplash. As far as the depth of the cabinets, I received a detailed sketch from Lacanche with the exact measurements for the Cluny 1400 which i gave to my contractor. My range does extend out about 4 inches beyond my base of my cabinets and about 2 1/2 inches past my countertop edge.

Hello Heather,

I apologize for not seeing your question earlier.

If you ordered your range in the past year, which seems to be the case, it comes with a reversible backspacer that can be installed flush with the cooktop, like the island spacer Corie mentioned. This spacer is 2" wide.

The maximum recommended depth for the cabinets with the spacer is 25-7/16". This will bring the face of the cabinets just behind the oven door opening. The diagram below gives you all the side dimensions for your range. Note the 23-7/16" dimension + 2" backspacer = 25-7/16" depth for your cabinets.

I hope this helps,

Patrick

We did not use the spacer in the back. We fireproofed the wall and put the range right up against the back. We had a custom piece of stainless steel made to cover the 'unfinished' side since there were no cabinets on one side. The custom piece was a PITA to figure out. It looks fine though, ~$200. Because our range was at a corner and we have a galley kitchen I didn't want it sticking out so much. Not sure how deep our counters are. That wasn't the driving force behind the decision not to use the back spacer.

Thank you for the info. In a twist of fate we've decided to move next year and so my newly arrived range will be in storage until then.
