The freezer door height is 24-24/32 in. (629 mm).
u
To cover the lower part of the appliance: increase the
height of the panel to 27-3/32 in. (695 mm).
The thickness of the floor board is usually 3/4 in. (19 mm).
u
To cover the face side of the floor board
Fig. 7 (a)
: increase
the height of the panel to 27-3/8 in. + 3/4 in. = 28-1/8 in.
( 695 mm + 19 mm = 714 mm ).
Without door panels on the unit, there is a gap of 19/32 in.
(15 mm) betwenn the freezer
Fig. 7 (4)
and the refrigerator
door

. After the installation of the cabinet doors, the
gap between the two doors
Fig. 7 (1,2)
will only be around
1/8 in. (3 mm) and must be in the hatched area.
Of course, the final door height depends on the gap position
of the cabinets that stand to the left and right of the
appliance cabinet.
If there is other furniture standing close to the appliance
cabinet this furniture typically has a gap between two
drawers or two doors. Depending on your kitchen, these
gaps are approximately 1/8 in. (3 mm) wide.
u
In this case, increase the height of the panel to
27-3/8 in. + 3/4 in. + 19/32 in. - 1/8 in. = 28-19/32 in.
( 695 mm + 19 mm + 15 mm - 3 mm = 726 mm ).
The height of the refrigerator door panel is:
