/
True Flush Installation
In a flush installation,
the refrigerator doors
will align evenly with the
front face of adjacent cabinet
doors. The refrigerator blends
into the surrounding cabinetry.
Monogram built-in refrigerators can be installed flush
with typical 24-3/4" deep cabinetry.
When installed semi-flush, the case trim will conceal
slight gaps around the enclosure. The refrigerator will
project forward approximately 3/4" beyond the front
face of surrounding cabinetry.
In any installation situation, a wide range of appear-
ance options can be accomplished through the use of
one or more trim kits. See trim kit descriptions and
appearance options on page 5.
Semi-Flush Installation
These refrigerators
can also be installed
semi-flush into an enclosure
using the minimum cutout
width. The case trim creates a
frame around the opening.
Side Panel Requirements:
• Side panels are not required whenever the
refrigerator is installed into an enclosure or between
pantry and oven cabinets.
• Side panels are required whenever the sides of the
refrigerator are exposed.
• Side panel sizes vary depending on the type of
installation being made.
To accomplish an attractive installation, you must:
1. Determine the need for side panels.
2. Determine side panel thickness.
3. Order matching side panels from the cabinet
manufacturer. Be sure to provide the exact
dimensions.
