Design Guide

3/4" OVERLAY PANEL DIMENSIONS

For a more custom appearance, overlay panels may be installed on trimmed models. The overlay panel must be secured to a 1/4" thick backer panel which slides into the trim. A spacer panel 0.10" thick must be placed between the overlay and backer panel.

Assemble the panels with glue and screws.

Center the spacer panel on the backer panel, left to right and top to bottom. Secure the panels with glue.

Center the spacer and backer panel on the overlay panel and secure with glue and screws. Screws must be countersunk into the backer panel.
