How do I measure for a Custom Pizza Oven Cover (Countertop, Wood Fired)?
This guide explains how to measure your countertop wood-fired pizza oven for a custom-fitted Kuvr® Pizza Oven Cover, including each required measurement, where to take it, and how to record it accurately. There are 7 measurements to take, labelled A to G.
Important
Provide exact measurements with no extra allowance added. Kuvr® adds a standard tolerance of +25 mm (1 in) to the width and depth for a comfortable fit; no allowance is added to the height. You can measure in centimetres, inches, or metres — you choose your preferred unit when you configure the cover.
Please include photos
Photos of your countertop wood-fired pizza oven, taken from a few angles alongside your measurements, help us understand the exact shape — especially the chimney and how it sits — and get your cover right from the outset. Including a tape measure in shot for scale is ideal.

The overall width of the oven at its widest, from one outer edge to the other.
B — Total depth

Frequently asked questions
Which pizza oven guide should I use?
Use Brick Base if the oven sits on a fixed masonry/brick base; Countertop (Gas Fired) or Countertop (Wood Fired) for a standalone benchtop oven; and With Stand if the oven is on its own legged stand. Pick the one that matches your setup.
Why are there chimney measurements?
Several measurements locate the chimney — its cap diameter and its distance from the front, rear and side edges — so the cover is shaped to clear the chimney neatly. Take these carefully; they make the difference between a snug fit and a baggy one.
Do I measure with the door and handle in place?
Yes. Measure the oven exactly as it will sit when covered, with the door, handle and any chimney cap in their normal positions.
Can I measure in inches?
Yes. Measure in centimetres, inches, or metres — you choose your preferred unit when you configure the cover. Keep the same unit throughout.
