models) to calculate the rough-in
dimension. The leading (front)
edge must be finished to match
surrounding cabinetry.
Side panels, 1/2" minimum thickness are required when
using frameless cabinets. The side panel acts as a
spacer between the cabinet and the case trim and
prevents interference with cabinet door swing. The
