I’m looking at building a 300x300mm Trident. According to the configurator, the frame width is 460mm. I have a cabinet that it will be going into. If I remove the door off the cabinet, the opening is ~467mm. I don’t plan on putting any of the doors or panels on it because it will be in this cabinet. Can anyone verify that if you don’t have the panels on, it would fit through a 467mm opening?

Will it fit?

It might just barely fit but how will you get it in and out? You need extra space on top and sides for your hands to grab the printer. It will not be enough. What will be just right is Ikea Metod kitchen cabinet, the one that goes on the floor.
Additionally if you don't have any panels or doors, the heat from the printer will heat your electronics. Usually electronics are insulated when there are panels and doors. You will have to use an extractor fan to pull heat out of the cabinet. You need space for that too. You will end up taking away heat from the chamber that you would otherwise need for printing ABS.
Fair
Although, there are smaller builds, for example 250x250 Trident which would fit there.
