Flush or Semi-Flush Enclosure Installation

Monogram built-in refrigerators and freezers 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 or freezer will project forward approximately 3/4" beyond the front face of surrounding cabinetry.

In any installation situation, a wide range of appearance options can be accomplished through the use of one or more trim kits.

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 Sdimensions.

Advanced Planning

True Flush Installation

Semi-Flush Installation

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.

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.
