We have started putting in a new kitchen and ran into an issue with where the dishwasher is going. The drainage pipe is running into the area where the dishwasher should slide into. What is the best way to fix this issue?

There is a stud/support to the right hand side as well, as there is a window above and to the right that you can't see in the pictures.

Hopefully you can help me out!

Thanks in advance!

pictures will not open

Sorry about that, I have fixed the pictures I hope.

I wonder if the dishwasher would actually hit that pipe. Most dishwashers do not slide back all the way. Have you tried it yet?

Another idea: It may be possible to cut off a small piece of the plastic on the dishwasher to accommodate it.

Thanks for the reply. I'm just going by what the measurement drawings said, which is to have 24" of space available. We'll physically try it tonight and see if it fits.

Thanks!

the back of a dishwasher is CURVED

more than likely you are ok

The 24" width is at the cabinet face. I feel sure it'll clear the pipe.

I think it might depend on where the dishwasher is supposed to line up with the cabinets. Here is the sizing info from Kitchenaid:

Some further info:

The pipe sticks out at the furthest point about 3"

The cabinets are around 24 3/4" deep when including the distance from the walls. The doors are on top of this.

the specs are to a readily compressible/moveable sound insulation blanket whitch 'probably' covers the curved sides
