SIDE-BY-SIDEFULL-OVERLAY CUSTOM PANELS

Custom overlay panels allow you to blend the exterior of your refrigerator into the overall kitchen décor, and to use custom handles for additional design flexibility.

Note: To use full-overlay custom panels, a Trimless Trim Kit for Side by Sides is required (TRIMKITSXS). Full-overlay custom panels and handles are required but not included. Create the panels according to these specifications.

The custom panels must have backer panels attached in order to mount them to the refrigerator. It is most common to work with three panels, as shown in the following graphic: a decorative overlay panel, a 1/8" (3.18 mm) spacer panel or spacer strips and a 1/4" (6.35 mm) backer panel.
