Stainless Panel
Corrugated
For Stainless Panels:
• Press foam pads against steel doors to temporarily
reduce thickness.
• Crimp top and bottom edges of corrugated.
• Slide corrugated onto doors, leave about
1/4" gap between edge of corrugated and hinge side.
Note: Panelshave a protective plastic covering. Peel away just
enoughto allow panel to slide into trim and to clear handle
mounting screws. The plastic covering will keep the panels clean
during the installation process.
• Slide panels into the door trim. Leave about 4" of the
panel exposed to allow room to install the handle
extrusion.
Be sure to maintain 1/4"gap between corrugated and
hinge side trim.
• Place a spacer ring over each of the 4 screw holes on
the extrusion. Use tape to hold in place.
• Place extrusion onto back side of panel. Use a pencil to
punch hole in tape over spacer rings and align with
screw holes.
• Install 4 mounting screws through the extrusion and
panel.
• Screw handle to panel, starting at the top. Moving
down the handle, drive each screw partially into the
standoff, alternating back to the top until the handle is
tight against the panel.
• Slide the assembly into the door frame until the
extrusion fits firmly against the steel door.
• Reinstall original screws into the door extrusion.
Raised Panel on 1/4" Thick Backing:
A raised panel design secured to a 1/4" thick backing
(screwed or glued) can be used with this handle kit.
• Cut the 1/4" thick panels to size.
• Fabricate the raised panel to allow 1-1/4" clearance
from the hinge side to avoid striking adjacent
cabinetry.
• Allow 5/16" clearance at the top, bottom and handle
side edges to allow for the trim flange.
• Total thickness should not exceed 3/4".
• Countertops adjacent to the refrigerator installation
should be mitered 45° .
Note: Longerscrews, obtained locally, will be required to
accommodate panel thickness. Usestainless steel #10-32xlq/4"
truss Phillips head screws.
