Cabinet doors
An upper cabinet door for the refrigera-
tor section and a lower cabinet door for
the freezer section are required.
The cabinet doors must be at least
5/8“ (16mm) / 3/4” (19mm) thick.
–Weight of the door panel
If the door panel is too heavy
damage can occur.
Installing a door panel which is heav-
ier than the maximum permitted
weight could damage the hinges.
This can cause subsequent func-
tional problems.
Before installing the door panel, en-
sure that the weight of the door
panel does not exceed the maximum
permitted weight.
The maximum permissible weights of
the door panels in lb (kg) are:
Appliance Upper
door
panel
Lower
door
panel

Calculation of cabinet door size
The width of the cabinet door de-
pends on the style of the kitchen and
the gap between the unit door panels.
When calculating the height of the
cabinet door, remember that the top
edge of the door must be at the same
height as that of the doors of the adja-
cent units.
The cabinet door must be fitted cor-
rectly and not under tension.
Horizontal and vertical gaps
Depending on the style of kitchen cabi-
netry, the thickness and edge radius of
the custom door panel and the gap that
runs around the door, vertically and hor-
izontally, are specified.
It is essential to pay attention to the
following:
- Horizontal gap
The gap between the door panel and
the housing-unit door above or below it
must be at least 1/8" (3mm).
- Vertical gap
If the gap between the refrigeration-
appliance door panel and the adjoin-
ing housing-unit door or wall on the
hinged side is too small, the appli-
ance door could collide with the ad-
joining housing-unit door or wall
when opened.
It may be necessary to adjust the
size of this gap to suit the thickness
and edge radius of the door panel.
