Raised Panel on 1/4" Thick Backing:
A raised panel design secured to a 1/4" thick backing
(screwed or glued) can be used with this handle kit.
Cut the 1/4" thick panels to size.
Fabricate the raised panel to allow 1-1/4" clearance
from the hinge side of the panel to avoid striking
adjacent cabinetry.
Allow 5/16" clearance at the other edges to allow for
the trim flange.
Total panel thickness should not exceed 3/4".
Countertops adjacent to the refrigerator installation
should be mitered 45°.
NOTE: Longer Screws, obtained locally, will be required
to accommodate panel thickness. Use stainless steel
#10-32x1-1/4" truss Phillips head screws.

Crimp top and bottom edges of corrugated.
Slide corrugated into door trim. Leave about 1/4" gap
between edge of corrugated and hinge side trim of
the door.
NOTE: Panels have a protective plastic covering. Peel
away just enough to allow panel to slide into trim and to
clear handle mounting screws. The plastic covering will
keep the panel clean during the installation process.
Be sure to maintain 1/4" gap between corrugated and
hinge side trim.
Slide panel into the door trim. Leave about 4" of the
panel exposed to allow room to install the handle
extrusion.
Place a spacer ring over each screw hole on the
extrusion. Use tape to hold in place.
Place extrusion onto panel. Use a pencil to punch
hole in tape covering spacer rings and align with
screw holes.
Install mounting screws through the extrusion and
panel.
Drive screw part way through the top standoff, then
part way through the bottom standoff. Install remaining
standoffs part way.
Drive screws until the handles are tight against the
panel.
Slide the assembly into the door trim until the
extrusion fits firmly against the steel door.
Reinstall original screws into the door extrusion.
