Title: How Wide Is Your Blackstone Griddle?
Post by: pmillen on March 06, 2018, 08:55:48 PM: Will a four-burner Blackstone griddle easily go through a sliding door that opens 29 inches?

If I take the handles off of the sliding door it will add another 2Â¾ inches to the opening, but that would be annoying if I had to do it every time it went out or in.

Cut a piece of wood on a 45Â° angle and make it as wide as your opening and high as your threshold and use it as a ramp to pull your griddle over. My Dad made me one for my backdoor of my garage to my patio that I use to pull my Elite over the threshold. I put it in place and pull it out as needed.

The griddle comes with 4" wheels that are good quality. Much better than my Weber gasser has.

I doubt you would need to replace them.

Thanks for the welcome.

I signed up a while ago but the weather and life have got in the way of doing anything pellet related. After the xxxxxx weather last summer I am looking forward to getting some outdoor cooking done.

I have the four burner and the two burner. Top comes off and legs fold up on both. Way easier to move that way.
