when 25” depth is available. If
less than 25” depth is available,
go to step 3.
If side panel is not inserted into
side trim, drill six equally-spaced
holes in each side trim.
Do Not drill into side of
cabinet. Attach side panels to
side trim using six screws on
each side.
Side panel thickness should be
112” minimum to prevent
“blousing” or warping.

3. If less than 25” depth is
available, side panel
installation will need to be
completed according to each
site’s restrictions.
One method is to attach side
panel to outside of side trim.
However, this will increase
width required. Drill holes into
side trim. Attach a wood support
to side trim. Attach side panel
to panel support nailer and
wood support. Cover wood
support with a panel piece to
match side panel.

4. Height of side panels depends
on your installation site. Side
panels may need to be notched
to clear door hinges. Side
panels may be cut to match toe
panel recess if desired.
Notch side panel only after
the installed height of the
refrigerator has been
determined.
