DW80CG5451MTAA: model-specific checks
Use these measurements for the first comparison
For Samsung DW80CG5451MTAA, start with width 24, manufacturer height (decimal specification) 34.125 - 35.33, manufacturer depth (decimal specification) 24. Preserve those labels when comparing an opening or delivery route. Any handle/hinge allowances, clearances and adjustment ranges that the source does not establish remain additional checks.
Measure the opening, appliance, path into the kitchen, and nearby connections before deciding whether a dishwasher will fit.

Dimensions & fit
Measure the cabinet opening
Measure opening width at the front and farther back, and measure height from the finished floor to the underside of the counter at both sides. Record the smallest usable width and height. Check depth from the back wall to the cabinet face, accounting for baseboards, pipes, outlets, and any obstruction that projects into the cavity.
Do not rely on a nominal “24-inch” description. Published dimensions can describe the appliance body while the required opening, door projection, leveling range, and trim clearances are different. Use the installation instructions for the exact model to compare the opening against its permitted range.
Account for the open door
Measure the space in front of the opening and the path of the dishwasher door when open. Check whether a nearby island, cabinet pull, oven handle, or walkway will block it. A door that opens but collides with a fixed object may prevent the lower rack from sliding out or make loading awkward.
If the floor rises in front of the opening, account for the transition and for the dishwasher’s leveling feet. A machine can appear to fit when pushed in but bind against the counter or floor once leveled. Confirm the manual’s clearance and leveling directions before final placement.
Check the entry route
Measure the narrowest point from delivery access to the kitchen: doorways, hall turns, stair landings, and the space beside island corners. Compare those measurements with the packaged and unboxed appliance dimensions provided by the seller or manufacturer. Note removable doors or trim only if the delivery provider confirms the procedure and the appliance instructions allow it.
A clear cabinet cavity does not guarantee delivery access. If the route has a tight turn, communicate the narrow point and measurements before scheduling so the delivery team can assess the move. Avoid removing structural cabinetry or altering a counter edge to accommodate a unit without confirming the construction and required support.
Check adjacent cabinet and counter details
Identify whether the opening has a finished side panel, a face frame, or exposed flooring beneath the appliance. Confirm how the chosen unit is secured and whether the installation instructions specify side or top mounting. Counter material and cabinet construction affect the permitted fastening approach, so do not assume the same bracket method works for stone, laminate, and framed cabinetry.
Look at the sink base for room to route water and drain lines without sharp bends or pinching. The dishwasher door and adjacent cabinet doors should clear each other through their full swing. If a panel-ready design is being considered, confirm panel dimensions and weight limits from that model’s instructions rather than estimating from a standard door front.
Compare measured values before ordering
Write down the opening’s minimum width, height, and depth, plus the appliance’s published body dimensions and the installation document’s required opening range. Include the door-open projection and route measurements in the same note. This makes a mismatch visible before delivery rather than after the unit is in the kitchen.
For replacement work, measure the existing cavity independently. An older machine occupying the opening does not prove a new model has the same body depth, hose path, mounting location, or leveling allowance. If the measurements are close to a stated limit, ask the seller or manufacturer to clarify the exact installation allowance before committing.
What to do with what you find
The opening meets the exact model’s stated range at its narrowest points, and the door clears nearby fixtures.
The cabinet fit is plausible, subject to route and connection checks.
The opening is smaller than the model’s allowed range or a nearby fixture blocks door travel.
The appliance is not a straightforward fit in the measured configuration.
Have these details ready
- Minimum opening width and height, plus usable depth
- Exact model body dimensions and installation opening range
- Door-open clearance and delivery route measurements
- Sink-base space for water and drain routing
Common questions
Can I use the old dishwasher’s dimensions as the opening measurement?
No. Measure the cavity and compare it with the new model’s required opening range.
Should I measure only the cabinet opening?
No. Also check door swing, floor height, delivery route, and the space for hoses and mounting.
