Refrigerator and Side Trim Dimensions
The width and height of a side panel are determined by the type
of installation you are planning.
NOTES:
The dimensions shown are actual product dimensions
and may not reflect the needed panel installation
dimensions.
The side panel should be a minimum of ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm) thick
to avoid warping.
If the opening depth is 25" (63.5 cm) or more, you may
want to install a support board on the rear wall.
