Custom 1/4'' Thick Door Panel Insert - U-Line Origins 75BEV Installation Manual

4 Prepare/Install Door Panel or
Prepare Racks
Three types of custom treatments may be involved in your
installation:
• 75R Refrigerators will accept a Custom 1/4" Thick Insert
to harmonize with or accent the surrounding decor.
• 75BEV Beverage Centers are equipped with two maple-
trimmed wine racks that are coated at the factory with
a clear vinyl sealer, which will adequately protect the
wood in normal usage. A final finish coat was not
applied so that the wood trim could be stained to
match décor. The trim on the racks may be coated with
a final finish or stained.
If none of these treatments are to be included in this
installation, go on to 5 Adjust Door.

Door Panel Preparation
A custom door panel can be inserted into the doorframe.
Custom door panels can be flat or raised, as long as the
maximum panel thickness where inserted into the door
reveal (channel) is 1/4"-thick. For raised panels, the depth
of the reveal is 1/4" on all four sides.

clearance if the unit is installed next to a wall or similar
type of structure (see Page 5).
