Trying to Replace an 800mm Rangehood in Your Melbourne Home? We Have the Solution for You.
If you live in Melbourne and you’re upgrading your kitchen or replacing an old rangehood, you might be facing a surprisingly common problem:
Your existing cut-out is 800mm wide… and modern rangehoods no longer come in that size.
Older kitchens across Melbourne — from Brunswick and Carlton to Glen Waverley, Essendon, and Bayside — often used custom cabinetry with 800mm openings. But today, most rangehoods are made in 600mm, 900mm, or 1200mm, leaving homeowners unsure what to do next.
The good news?
We specialise in solving this exact problem.
Why Replacing an 800mm Rangehood in Melbourne Is Tricky
Many Melbourne homes built from the 80s to early 2000s used cabinetry that doesn’t match current appliance sizes. When your opening is 790–800mm wide, it becomes difficult to find a modern replacement that:
- Fits without modifying cabinets
- Looks correct in the space
- Provides strong, reliable extraction
- Works with existing ducting
This is one of the most common rangehood challenges Melbourne homeowners come to us for — and we’ve created the perfect solution.
