PLANNING YOUR NAPOLEON MODULAR OUTDOOR ISLAND
The Napoleon Outdoor Modular Island series has been developed with versatility in mind. The cabinets can be
assembled in virtually any combination to suit your individual needs. They can be assembled against a house wall or
as a standalone island, becoming the focal point of your backyard. With multi-function and storage capabilities, your
backyard island can be transformed into an outdoor kitchen, placing the host in the center of the action when entertain-
ing guests. The built-in grill cabinets are suitable for Mirage Series Grills only.
The cabinets are designed to be easy to assemble and install for either the home owner or private contractor.
All cabinets are 35” tall by 24” deep. All cabinets are 24” wide except for the built-in grill cabinets whose width corre-
spond to the width of the unit it was designed for. Each cabinet has 4 leveling feet for adjustment on even surfaces.
The 2 drawer cabinets are made to fit the Napoleon Mirage series of grills only. The Mirage series of grills come in 3
different sizes, each with a self contained drippan to prevent grease drippings from entering the drawers below. Refer to
the installation manuals that come with the grill head for proper installation and operating instructions.
The Mirage built-in series of grills can be ordered in your choice of propane or natural gas configuration.
Natural gas is an obvious selection for many people that already have it available in their home. All gas modifications
or installations must be done by a qualified gas installer. Knockouts are present in the side and rear panels for easy
piping and installation. For those who order a propane grill, a propane tank cabinet is available.
The cabinets can be installed against a
NON-COMBUSTIBLE
wall of a house, a masonry or stucco half-wall, or
freestanding in an island configuration. An optional 4” spacer panel must be purchased and installed when placing an
island against a wall to allow clearance for the grill lid to open. The spacer also provides closure for the cabinet to
prevent debris or rodents from entering behind the cabinets. A powdercoated, 2” wide end panel can be purchased to
cover the knockouts and mounting holes in the outside panels in a run of cabinets, giving a more finished look.
Optional built-in sideburner kits are available through your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer. These sideburner kits
are an excellent complement to the Mirage Built-in series of grills. We recommend that the sideburner kit be installed
over top of the IM-2DC cabinet. It has the false drawer front at the top of the cabinet which allows clearance for the
sideburner valve and hose routing. The IM-2DC cabinet also provides the necessary clearance for those who would
like to install a sink in their outdoor kitchen.
Cabinet IM-FDC has been designed to have a fridge installed inside of it. It is made by Danby,model DAR-259BL
(black)
or DAR-259W (white)
, 2.5 cu.ft capacity.
Countertops must be ordered and supplied locally by the homeowner. The countertop material must be
NON-
COMBUSTIBLE
if a grill is to be installed into it. They can be ordered in advance by drawing out the floorplan of how the
cabinets will be situated and adding up the width measurements, allowing 1-2 inches of countertop overhang. Most
countertop manufacturers are willing to come and take measurements after assembly of the cabinets is complete to
ensure a perfect fit. For best results the countertop thickness should be between 1/2 to 1 1/2” thick. The built-in
grillhead comes with stainless steel brackets and hardware that allow the unit to rest on the countertop above the
corresponding island cabinet for that unit. Granite or Corian are excellent choices of countertop materials. Decorative
countertops made of ceramic tile set on top of cement tiling board can be made to match your surrounding backyard
furniture colors.
