Exact-Fit Hoods for Cabinet-Integrated Kitchens
JILU (Shengzhou Jilu Ventilation Equipment Co., Ltd., manufacturing since 1996 in Shengzhou, Zhejiang) builds insert, slim, and under-cabinet range hoods sized to standard cabinet openings — 30 in / 36 in in North America and 60 cm / 90 cm in Europe.
The remodeler program covers four things that decide whether a hood fits your cabinet run: a cutout quick-reference table with a dimensioned PDF drawing per model, a small-batch mixed-model policy for trial orders and single-project buys, an installation documentation pack (cutout drawings, bracket specs, install videos), and the 8 cm slim line for European kitchens where a standard hood crowds the wall cabinets.

Cabinet Opening Fit — 01 / 05
Which Models Fit Standard Cabinet Openings?
Short answerThe insert (built-in) series mounts flush inside a cabinet opening for a fully integrated look, and the slim series — an 8 cm profile — fits where a standard-depth hood would crowd the wall cabinets. Both cover the widths cabinet shops actually build to: 30 in and 36 in for North American runs, 60 cm and 90 cm for European runs. Every model ships with a dimensioned cutout drawing, so your shop draws the cabinet around real numbers, not guesses.
Fit problems are the most expensive callback in a kitchen remodel: the hood arrives, the opening is 15 mm off, and the cabinet run is already installed. The quick-reference table below maps each JILU series to the opening it fits. Treat it as the shortlist, then confirm against the per-model PDF drawing before you cut:
| Series | Installation style | Opening widths covered | Profile | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Insert / built-in | Flush-mount inside the cabinet opening; liner hidden by the cabinet face |
30 in (76 cm) · 36 in (91 cm) 60 cm · 90 cm |
Standard depth, cabinet-integrated | Custom cabinet runs, concealed-kitchen designs, new builds |
| Slim | Under-cabinet or wall-mount; body sits close to the wall |
60 cm · 90 cm 30 in · 36 in |
8 cm slim profile | Compact European kitchens, shallow wall cabinets, headroom-sensitive layouts |
| Under-cabinet | Surface-mount below an existing wall cabinet — no cabinet modification |
30 in · 36 in 60 cm · 90 cm |
Standard depth | Retrofits and renovation swaps where the cabinet run stays untouched |
Cutout quick reference — the dimensioned PDF drawing per model governs. Verify opening width, depth envelope, and duct centerline against the drawing before cutting cabinet panels.
The printable cutout spec PDF (dimensioned drawings per model) is sent via WhatsApp or email on request. VERIFY: printable cutout spec PDF compilation — the per-model drawing set exists; assembling it into one downloadable PDF needs confirmation before this button is published live
Insert Series · Type 304
Depth is the other half of fit. A hood that clears the opening but protrudes past the cabinet face puts the front edge in the cook's headroom — the depth-clearance formula that prevents that is worked through in Under-Cabinet Range Hood 36 Inch: The Depth Clearance Formula That Prevents Head-Bumps. Whether an insert is the right call for a compact supply at all is covered in Are Insert Range Hoods Best for Small Kitchen Supply?
Small-Batch Orders — 02 / 05
How Small Can Your Order Be?
Short answerJILU runs a small-batch program for remodelers and cabinet shops: trial orders can mix models and widths in one pallet or crate, so a single kitchen project or a showroom refresh does not require a full container of one SKU. Per-model minimums under the mixed-batch policy are confirmed at quote time against the current production schedule. VERIFY: mixed-model small-batch minimums per series — program described qualitatively; exact per-model numbers to be confirmed by JILU sales before publishing
Container-scale MOQs are built for importers, not for a shop fitting six kitchens this quarter. Three order shapes cover most remodeler demand, and they can be combined in one shipment:
- Project order — the exact units for one kitchen or one building's unit mix, packed and labeled per room or per unit so the site team does not sort cartons.
- Showroom + trial batch — a mixed pallet of the widths and finishes you want to quote from, sized to test sell-through before a repeat.
- Replenishment batch — a repeat of an already-tooled configuration; no print or tooling setup is repeated, so reorders ride a standard production slot.
The full economics of how minimums are built — and how mixed batches change the math — are in the hot-products lineup and the complete product catalog: quote-ready series, widths, and finishes your batch can be mixed from.

Installation Documentation — 03 / 05
What Installation Documentation Is Provided?
Short answerEvery model ships with a dimensioned cutout drawing (PDF), a multi-language installation guide, and a quick-mount bracket spec. The full pack — duct adapter list, electrical spec sheet, and installation walkthrough videos — goes to your site team at quote time, so the crew mounting the hood works from the same numbers your shop drew the cabinet from.
Documentation is where a factory either respects your installers or wastes their afternoon. The JILU pack is organized by who uses it on site:
| Document | What it contains | Who uses it |
|---|---|---|
| Cutout drawing (PDF) | Dimensioned opening, depth envelope, duct centerline, clearance margins — per model | Cabinet shop / designer — drawn into the cabinet run before panels are cut |
| Installation guide | Step-by-step mounting, electrical connection, duct attachment; printed multi-language copy in the carton plus PDF | Site installer |
| Quick-mount bracket spec | Bracket hole pattern, fastener schedule, load points — the bracket hangs the hood while the crew aligns it | Site installer |
| Duct adapter list | Compatible duct diameters and adapter options per model, ducted and recirculating | Installer / MEP coordinator |
| Electrical spec sheet | Voltage and frequency variants (120 V 60 Hz · 220–240 V 50 Hz), hardwire and plug options, load figures | Electrician |
| Installation videos | Walkthrough per mounting style — insert, slim, under-cabinet — supplied at quote time VERIFY: installation video library coverage per series — videos described as supplied at quote time; per-series availability to be confirmed by JILU sales | Site crew training / showroom demo |
Installation documentation pack — organized by the person who uses each document on site.

European Renovations — 04 / 05
Renovating a European Kitchen? The 8 cm Slim Solution
Short answerEuropean wall cabinets run shallow and renovation kitchens rarely give you a duct chase to play with. The slim series keeps the hood body at an 8 cm profile, so it stays inside the clearance line above the hob instead of protruding into headroom — with 220–240 V 50 Hz electricals, CE-certified builds, and recirculating (ductless) configurations for apartments with no duct path at all.
Three constraints show up in almost every European renovation brief, and each one has a direct answer in the slim line:
- Shallow wall cabinets. A standard-depth hood proud of a 35 cm-class wall cabinet puts its front edge in the cook's head space. The 8 cm body keeps the working line clear — the space-saving case is quantified in Slim vs Traditional Range Hood: Which Saves More Space in 2026 Apartments.
- No duct path. Renovated apartments often cannot add ductwork without touching the façade. Recirculating configurations with carbon filtration install against the existing wall — and the airflow trade-off between under-cabinet and wall-mount designs in compact European kitchens is analyzed in Under-Cabinet vs Wall-Mount Hoods for Compact European Kitchens.
- 230 V sites and CE paperwork. Slim series units ship in 220–240 V 50 Hz variants with CE documentation, so the electrical spec and the compliance file match the building the kitchen goes into.
For cabinet makers, the practical win is the drawing: the slim series cutout drawing carries the same dimensioned envelope as the rest of the pack, so a European wall-cabinet run and a North American 36 in insert can be detailed in one shop drawing set.

FAQ — 05 / 05
FAQ — Remodelers & Cabinet Makers
Q.01What cutout size do I need for a standard cabinet opening?+
Start from the opening width your cabinet run uses — 30 in and 36 in for North American kitchens, 60 cm and 90 cm for European kitchens — then work from the dimensioned cutout drawing for the specific model. The drawing carries the opening dimensions, depth envelope, duct centerline, and clearance margins. Measure the opening, the depth available above the hob, and the duct path before ordering; the drawing, not the catalog photo, governs the cut.
Q.02How small can my first order be?+
JILU runs a small-batch program for remodelers and cabinet shops: trial orders can mix models and widths in one pallet or crate, so a single project or a showroom refresh does not require a full container of one SKU. Per-model minimums under the mixed-batch policy are confirmed at quote time against the current production schedule, and a repeat of an already-tooled configuration rides a standard production slot with no setup repeated.
Q.03What installation documentation comes with each model?+
Every model ships with a dimensioned cutout drawing (PDF), a multi-language printed installation guide in the carton, and a quick-mount bracket spec with the hole pattern and fastener schedule. The full pack adds a duct adapter list, an electrical spec sheet covering 120 V 60 Hz and 220-240 V 50 Hz variants, and installation walkthrough videos supplied at quote time.
Q.04Which model is the 8 cm slim solution?+
The slim series keeps the hood body at an 8 cm profile so it stays inside the clearance line above the hob instead of protruding into headroom. It is built for compact European kitchens and shallow wall cabinets, ships in 220-240 V 50 Hz variants with CE documentation, and offers recirculating (ductless) configurations with carbon filtration for apartments that cannot add a duct path.
Q.05Insert or under-cabinet — which fits a remodel better?+
Choose an insert (built-in) hood when the cabinet run is being built or refaced: the liner mounts flush inside the cabinet opening and the cabinet face hides it, giving a fully integrated look — at the cost of cabinet space given to the hood. Choose an under-cabinet hood for a retrofit where the existing cabinets stay: it surface-mounts below the wall cabinet, keeps the cabinet interior free, and is the faster install.
Q.06How much depth clearance should I leave to avoid head-bumps?+
Keep the hood front edge at or behind the plane of the cabinet faces above the work line, and match hood depth to cabinet depth wherever the run allows. The exact calculation for a 36-inch-class hood in a standard kitchen — the depth-clearance formula — is worked through in the JILU guide on under-cabinet depth clearance; the slim series avoids the problem entirely by holding the body to an 8 cm profile.
Q.07Can I mix models and widths in one batch?+
Yes. Mixed-model, mixed-width pallets are supported under the small-batch program — a project order can carry a 36 in insert for the main kitchen, a 60 cm slim for the apartment unit, and an under-cabinet unit for the retrofit wing in one shipment. Units can be packed and labeled per room or per unit so the site team does not sort cartons. The exact mixed-batch configuration is confirmed at quote time.
Q.08How fast can I reorder or replenish?+
Reorders of an already-tooled configuration skip print and tooling setup and are scheduled into a standard production slot; the exact lead time is stated per agreement at quote time. For project-driven demand, most shops order the project batch first and keep a mixed showroom pallet on a replenishment cycle, reordering against actual sell-through rather than a forecast.
