So looking to replace the cooker with built in oven and hob.
My thinking is i have room for a 600mm base unit (space measures 630mm) .. so oven in there, hob on top.
What i'm unsure is sizing?
600mm is that the external width, so that if the carcass is 15mm thick, i need to find an oven that is 600mm - (2 x 15mm) = 570mm?
Or the cavity of a 600mm base unit is 600mm, so i look for an oven 600mm wide?
This is the housing i'm looking at, have to get the replacement worktop from there also.

Also it looks as if there is a bottom space in the housing between the oven and legs - is it possible to utilise this as a space for baking trays, by converting the fascia to a drop-down door, or is the space there for a reason?
Many Thanks.
