Creating Custom Wood Panels
If you plan to install custom wood decorator
panels, you will need to create the panels yourself
or consult your cabinet maker or carpenter. See
dimensional drawings for wood panel inserts.
Flat panels:
You can create a custom flat panel a maximum of
6.35 mm thick to replace your decorator panels.
Flat wood panels less than 6.35 mm thick are not
recommended.
Dimensions for custom wood panels:
36
Raised panels:
A raised panel design can be created by screwing
or gluing wood panels to 6.35 mm backing or by
using 19.05 mm stock with routed edges. Raised
panels should be spaced 5.70 cm from the back
edge of the handle to allow room for fingers to
grasp the handle.
Weight requirements for raised panel inserts:
• Refrigerator door panel should not exceed
12.7 kg.
• Freezer door panels should not exceed 9.5 kg
combined weight.
