INSTALLATION NOTES
R
efer to the illustrations and specifications
for overall dimensions, finished rough opening
dimensions and installation specifics.
A
llow the door to open a minimum of 90˚ or
you'll have problems removing drawers. With
the door opening at 90˚, you may have to move
drawers slightly to clear the door interior. Refer
to the minimum door swing clearance in the
specifications chart.
For corner installations, allow for a minimum
3" (76) filler so that the door can open to 90˚.
If you're using raised panels, consider using a
wider filler. A 90˚ door stop is available as an
accessory.
When units are installed side by side, a filler
strip is recommended. The width of this filler
strip will vary depending on the configuration
and panels you use. An anchoring kit may also
be used to attach two units together. This kit is
available through your Sub-Zero dealer.
Be sure to add the filler strip width to your
finished rough opening dimension. In any side-
by-side installation without a filler strip, add an
additional
1
/2" (13) to y
our combined number
s.
This will allow for the proper width.
Refer to the full-scale illustrations at the end
of this section for specifics on door openings
and filler size alternatives.
If your client has chosen the stainless steel
design, the unit will be shipped complete with

provide a stable installation, the unit must be
secured in place with an anti-tip blocking kit. If
there is a solid soffit above the unit with clear-
ance between the unit and the soffit of 1" (25)
or less, you won't need to block the unit.
For installations with clearances of more
than 1" (25), you must block the unit with the
anti-tip bloc
king kit (wood block and hardware)
provided with each Built-In unit.
