American Outdoor Grill 24-Inch Portable Cart
Big-Grill Build Quality in a Compact Station — Your AOG 24-Inch Built-In, Ready to Roll The 24CRT-25 converts any 24-inch AOG L-Series or T-Series built-in into a freestanding, go-anywhere cooking station — the same commercial-grade 304 stainless steel, fold-out prep shelves, and organized storage as the larger carts, sized right for smaller patios and tighter spaces. The American Outdoor Grill 24-Inch Portable Cart Base (model 24CRT-25) is the purpose-built freestanding solution for AOG's 24-inch built-in grill heads. Constructed from commercial-grade 304 stainless steel and proudly made in the USA, it transforms an L-Series or T-Series 24-inch built-in into a fully mobile outdoor cooking station without the cost or commitment of an island build. Twin fold-down side shelves give you real prep space when you need it and fold flat when you don't. Dual access doors open onto a storage bay for tools and accessories, and an integrated tank ring holder keeps your propane cylinder secured inside the cabinet. Caster wheels mean the whole station goes wherever the cooking does. If you own a 24-inch AOG built-in, this cart is the add-on that makes it a complete setup. Free Shipping 45-Day Returns Price Match Available Made in the USA Commercial-Grade 304 SS Why the 24CRT-25 Is the Right Foundation for Your AOG Purpose-built for AOG's 24-inch grill heads — not a generic stand adapted to fit. Every detail, from the cabinet width to the shelf proportions, is matched to the grill it carries. L & T Universal Fit for Both AOG 24-Inch Series Accepts any AOG 24-inch built-in — L-Series or T-Series — so you can pair the cart now and upgrade to the L-Series grill head later without replacing the base. 304 SS Commercial-Grade Stainless Steel Throughout Full 304 stainless steel construction — the alloy used in professional kitchens — stands up to rain, heat, humidity, and salt air through years of outdoor use without rusting or fading. 58⅛" Real Prep Width When You Need It Twin fold-down side shelves extend the station to over 58 inches wide — room for a cutting board, platters, and your tools — then tuck flat to a compact 38¼ inches when space is at a premium. Tank Ring Integrated Propane Tank Holder The built-in tank ring holder secures your LP cylinder inside the cabinet — no separate tank stand, no tip hazard, and no loose cylinder taking up floor space beside the grill. Roll It Caster Wheels for True Portability Heavy-duty casters let you roll the whole setup — grill and all — to wherever you want to cook, then lock it in position. No outdoor kitchen required, and no commitment to a single spot on the patio. What's Included in the Box ► 24CRT-25 Cart Base 304 stainless steel cart body with caster wheels Dual access doors (storage cabinet) Fold-down twin side shelves (2) Tank ring holder (propane tank support) Hardware for side shelf assembly Sold Separately — Required AOG 24-inch L-Series or T-Series built-in grill head LP gas connection hose — AOG #5110-07 (liquid propane) NG quick disconnect hose — AOG #5110-03 (natural gas, 10 ft) Optional Accessories Accent Black Door Panels (sold separately) Accent White Door Panels (sold separately) Deep Dive — AOG 24CRT-25 Cart Base ► Compact Footprint, Full-Featured Storage The 24CRT-25 is the most space-efficient cart in the AOG lineup, with a base just 28½ inches wide — narrow enough for a small balcony, a side gate passage, or a patio where every square foot is spoken for. But compact doesn't mean compromised: dual access doors open onto a genuine storage bay for grilling tools, accessories, and extras, and the integrated tank ring holder keeps your propane cylinder safely contained inside the cabinet rather than sitting out in the open. When the shelves fold down and the doors are closed, this cart takes up less space than a standard outdoor dining chair. When the shelves are out and the grill is lit, it's a complete cooking station. Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take ► The Deck & Den Take — The 24-inch cart is the one to choose when space is genuinely the constraint — a narrow urban deck, a small concrete balcony, a patio that already has a table and chairs and can't absorb a larger footprint. With both shelves folded, the 24CRT-25 is barely two and a half feet wide; that's the difference between fitting and not fitting in a lot of real outdoor spaces. The build quality and features are identical to the larger carts in the series — same 304 stainless, same access doors, same tank ring holder — so you're not trading down on quality to get the smaller size. One practical note before the first cook: pick up your gas connection hose at the same time, LP hose #5110-07 for propane or NG hose #5110-03 for natural gas. Neither is included, and you'll want it in hand when the cart arrives. AOG 24-inch built-in grill owners who want to run their grill head as a freestanding unit rather than committing to a permanent outdoor kitchen island. Small-space outdoor cooks — narrow balconies, compact urban patios, side yards, and rooftop setups where a 30- or 36-inch cart simply won't fit. Couples and one-to-two-person households who want serious AOG build quality without the scale of a larger grill station they'll never fill. Renters and frequent movers who want a premium US-made grill setup they can take with them — no built-in investment left behind at the old address. Outdoor kitchen planners who want to start grilling now on the cart while the island design and build is still in progress — same grill head, no compromise, zero wait.

Frequently Asked Questions ► Which AOG grills fit the 24CRT-25 cart?► The 24CRT-25 is designed to fit any AOG 24-inch built-in grill — both the L-Series and the T-Series. It does not fit AOG 30-inch or 36-inch grills, or grills from other manufacturers. AOG also makes the 30CRT-25 and 36CRT-25 cart bases for larger grill heads in the lineup. Does the cart come with a gas connection hose?► No — the gas connection hose is sold separately. For liquid propane, order AOG hose #5110-07. For natural gas, order AOG quick-disconnect hose #5110-03 (10 ft). You'll need one of these to connect your grill head to your fuel source, so we recommend adding it to your order at the same time as the cart. Is the grill head included with this cart?► No. The 24CRT-25 is a cart base only — the grill head (L-Series or T-Series, propane or natural gas) is sold separately. This lets you choose exactly the grill configuration and ignition style that fits your cooking needs and fuel preference. How wide is the 24-inch cart with the shelves folded versus extended?► With both side shelves folded down, the cart measures 38¼ inches wide — a genuinely narrow footprint for tight spaces. With both shelves fully extended, the total station width opens to 58⅛ inches. The cart base itself is 28½ inches wide. All dimensions are from the AOG 2026 official Spec Guide. What is the overall depth of the 24CRT-25?► The cart base is 21¼ inches deep. With a grill head mounted, the maximum outer depth from the front of the grill to the back of the cart is 35⅜ inches, per the AOG 2026 Spec Guide. What is the working height of the cart?► The cart stands 36 inches from the floor to the top of the shelf — standard counter height, which puts your grill controls and cooking surface at a natural, comfortable working level. How does the 24-inch cart compare to the 30- and 36-inch carts?► The 24CRT-25 is the most compact cart in the AOG lineup and must be paired with a 24-inch AOG grill head — the carts are not interchangeable between grill sizes. With shelves folded, the 24-inch cart is about 6 inches narrower than the 30-inch (38¼ in vs. 44¼ in) and over 12 inches narrower than the 36-inch (38¼ in vs. 50½ in). All three carts share the same height, depth, and feature set — same 304 stainless, same access doors, same fold-down shelves, same tank ring holder. The size you need is determined entirely by the grill head you own or plan to buy. What type of stainless steel is the cart made from?► The 24CRT-25 is built from 304 stainless steel — the commercial-grade alloy used in professional kitchen equipment. It offers strong resistance to rust, salt-air corrosion, and the heat cycles of outdoor cooking, making it a solid choice for coastal climates and everyday outdoor exposure alike. Is the AOG 24-Inch Cart made in the USA?► Yes. American Outdoor Grill is a US-manufactured brand, and the 24CRT-25 is made in the USA. What is the warranty on the 24CRT-25?► American Outdoor Grill provides a 10-year warranty on stainless steel parts. This warranty is honored directly by AOG — not by Deck & Den. Deck & Den passes through the manufacturer's warranty and is not the warrantor. Can I add accent color door panels to this cart?► Yes. AOG offers optional Accent Black and Accent White door panel accessories for the 24CRT-25, sold separately. These let you customize the look of the cart to suit different patio aesthetics or set it apart from a standard stainless finish. Does this cart work for both propane and natural gas?► Yes — the cart base itself is fuel-neutral. The fuel type is determined by the grill head you mount and the connection hose you choose. For liquid propane, use AOG hose #5110-07. For natural gas, use AOG quick-disconnect hose #5110-03. Both hoses are sold separately. Is this a permanent installation or a truly portable unit?► It is fully portable and freestanding — no permanent installation, no concrete, no fixed gas line required. The caster wheels let you roll the entire setup across a patio, deck, or balcony, then lock it in position for cooking. You can move it indoors for winter, take it to a different property, or simply rearrange the patio whenever you like. What clearances are required around the cart?► Clearance requirements are set by the specific AOG grill head mounted on the cart, not by the cart base alone. Refer to the owner's manual for your L-Series or T-Series grill for required distances from combustible walls, railings, and overhead surfaces, and follow all applicable local codes. How difficult is assembly?► The 24CRT-25 ships mostly assembled. The primary steps are attaching the fold-down side shelves and mounting your grill head. AOG provides a dedicated cart assembly guide (document C2-770) with step-by-step instructions — available for download in the Manuals & Documents section above. How do I maintain the stainless steel finish?► Wipe down with a mild stainless steel cleaner or warm soapy water, always moving with the grain of the steel to avoid fine scratching. Avoid abrasive pads and chlorine-based cleaners. A stainless steel polish applied a few times a year helps preserve the satin finish and resist surface staining from outdoor exposure. Can I use a grill cover with this cart?► Yes — AOG offers grill covers sized for their portable cart configurations. Make sure to select a cover for the 24-inch cart-mounted setup (not the built-in version) to ensure a proper fit over both the grill head and the cart body. Covers are sold separately.
