5 Adjust Door

Checking Door Alignment

The unit's door is aligned at the factory before shipment.
However, its alignment could have been disturbed during
shipment or during door panel installation.
IMPORTANT
Properly aligned, the door should be 1/8" below the top of
the unit's cabinet, NOT flush with the top (see Figure 26).
1/8"
Figure 26
1. Compare the top edge of the door to the top edge of
the cabinet.
2. If the door edge is 1/8" below and parallel to the top of
the cabinet, go on to 6 Prepare Plumbing. If it is not,
note whether the side opposite the hinge needs to be
moved UP or DOWN, and use the following procedure.
Note: If door is adjusted correctly, but panel is not square
with the adjacent cabinets, slight adjustments can be
made by drilling the holes in the vinyl coated steel panel
slightly oversized. See Figure 21 on Page 10.
