Built-In Panel Mounting Kit
OVERLAY AND FLUSH INSET PANELS
The panel mounting kit consists of stock lengths of PVC
cleats, self-drilling mounting screws and offset gages for
correctly locating the mounting cleats on the back of
decorative panels (overlay and ush inset). Each Sub-Zero
built-in model has a page in this guide which provides the
cut length of each cleat and offset required for mounting.
This kit works for all built-in models except glass door
models (no kit available). Dual installations require two
mounting kits for sufcient cleat stock and screws.
Be sure decorative panels have sufcient thickness where
screws will be installed. If not, use the alternate hole
pattern in the cleat or locate a new pattern. Use the longer
3
/4" (19) screws wherever possible, especially along the
bottom of panels and next to a custom handle, where
most of the load will be.
When panel construction permits, use the existing hole
pattern closest to the outer edge of the cleat. Screws can
be driven through the cleat where there are no clearance
holes. This is recommended near the door handle and on
the bottom cleat of decorative panels greater than
3
/4" (19)
thick, to support the extra weight.
PANEL MOUNTING KIT CONTENTS:
• (8) 65" (1651) lengths of PVC cleat stock.
• (50) #8 x
• (50) #8 x
5
/8" zip-in screws.
3
/4" zip-in screws.
• Set of two offset gages (two offsets per gage).
• Installation guide.
Mounting Instructions 4
Mounting Instructions
1) Determine location and mounting method of custom
door handle if one will be used. Decide the best way to
modify the cleat for the handle if necessary (cut cleat
completely or notch to t). Also, determine the best
sequence for installing handle and cleat. Panel will
need to overhang the work surface if handle is installed
before cleating.
2) Provide surface protection and lay decorative panel on
a at work surface with nished side down.
3) Locate the page of these instructions that applies to
your specic built-in model and installation (single or
dual). Circle the panel illustration for your application
(overlay or ush inset) for better reference as you
proceed.
4) Check dimensions of the decorative panels against the
panel illustration to be sure they are exactly the right
size.
5) Cut mounting cleats to length according to the chart.
Measure and cut longest cleats rst. Horizontal cleats
for panel bottoms should be cut to include as many
holes as possible. Use a general purpose blade in any
type of carpentry saw.
6) Using the offset gages provided, reference the panel
illustration to arrange cleats on the panel. Keep in
mind that you are working on the back side of the
panel. Horizontal cleats should extend to the outside of
vertical cleats for maximum screw count.
7) Double check cleat offset locations. Attach cleats
initially with screws in the slotted holes of the cleats.
Using quick clamps helps with accurate cleat placement while driving screws. Start on one end of the
cleat and work along the length as you install screws.
This makes it easier to maintain the proper offset if
there is any bow in the cleat.
Make sure the built-in unit is secured in place with
anti-tip brackets to prevent tipover when panel weight
is added to open doors.
8) Install panel assemblies on door(s) and grille of the
built-in unit. Refer to the built-in refrigeration installation guide for this procedure. Note any ne adjustments needed. Remove panel assemblies from the
unit and adjust cleats as required for proper panel
alignment. Attach remainder of screws in round holes.
Add extra screws in the bottom cleat if panel is thicker
3
than
/4" (19).
9) If there is ex in the center of the panel, install
short pieces of leftover cleat stock to the back of the
panel to maintain spacing from the unit door.
10) Reinstall panel assemblies and replace door trim.

Mounting kit is not intended for use with glass door model.
The illustrations below provide panel dimensions and
mounting cleat offsets for overlay and ush inset panels.
Check dimensions of actual panels against the illustration
for your panel application.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Panels are viewed from the front to
show nished elevation. Cleats will be attached to the
back of the panels.
Grille panel dimensions shown are for standard 84"
nominal nished height of unit. Grille panel will be 1"
(2134)
(25)
shorter for 83" (2108) nished height and 4" (102) taller for
88"
(2235) nished height.
Cut mounting cleats to length according to the chart. Cut
lengths will be the same for overlay and ush inset panels.
Horizontal cleats for panel bottoms should be cut to include
as many holes as possible. Refer to page 4 for mounting
instructions.
