Built-In Kitchen Appliance Install in Van Meter Coming Together

This Van Meter kitchen is shaping up to be something special. We knocked out a full built-in appliance installation - double wall ovens, a built-in microwave, and a massive side-by-side Frigidaire refrigerator set that fits perfectly into the cabinetry surround. The stainless steel against those deep olive-green cabinets is a sharp combo.

Built-in installs like this one take a lot more precision than a standard freestanding appliance drop-in. Everything has to sit flush, level, and properly secured inside the cabinetry opening. The oven stack alone requires careful attention to clearances and electrical connections - getting that wrong means callbacks and headaches down the road.

The panel-ready dishwasher is the one piece still waiting on hardware before it gets its cabinet front attached. That's pretty common on high-end new builds - sometimes the custom panel hardware lags behind the rest of the timeline. We get it staged and ready so the moment the hardware arrives, it's a quick finish.

We work through new construction kitchens like this one systematically. Get the big built-ins set first, protect the floors and cabinets as we go, and keep everything clean and organized so the other trades aren't working around a mess. It keeps the whole project moving the right way.
