      "name": "Step 1: Gather exact manufacturer specification sheets",
      "text": "Obtain the complete installation guides and spec cut sheets for your chosen refrigerator, range, cooktop, dishwasher, and microwave. Do not rely on nominal retail dimensions like thirty or thirty-six inches, because door hinges, handles, and rear utility connections add critical depth. Have these paper or digital sheets ready before drawing layout lines so your cabinet openings match real appliance tolerances.",

    {
      "name": "Step 2: Map existing utility infrastructure and structural boundaries",
      "text": "Inspect the room to locate existing supply pipes, drain stacks, dedicated electrical boxes, gas stubs, and exterior exhaust pathways. Check whether load-bearing posts or exterior venting duct runs restrict where heavy equipment can sit. A complete inspection reveals which items stay in place and which require utility relocation before framing begins.",

    {
      "name": "Step 3: Establish clear floor spaces and work aisles",
      "text": "Verify that every appliance location provides at least 30 by 48 inches of open floor space directly in front of it. Ensure that opposite cabinet runs leave enough room for two people to pass without colliding with open doors. Done properly, walking aisles remain wide enough even when appliance doors or pull-out freezers sit fully open.",

    {
      "name": "Step 4: Align adjacent landing areas and appliance swings",
      "text": "Position your cooktop with at least 12 inches of heat-safe landing surface on one side and 15 inches on the other, keeping hot pans clear of entryways. Place the dishwasher beside the sink while reserving 21 inches of standing space next to it for comfortable loading. Review door arcs to guarantee the refrigerator door handles will not strike adjacent cabinetry or door frames.",

      "position": 4
    },
    {
      "name": "Step 5: Verify ducted ventilation pathways and overhead clearances",
      "text": "Confirm that your range or cooktop hood has an unobstructed, correctly sized duct path directly to the outside wall or roof. Cross-reference the hood's minimum mounting height against your range manufacturer's guidelines to prevent cabinet scorching or insufficient air capture. When all overhead cabinet clearances, power feeds, and exterior vent terminations align on paper, your layout plan is complete.
