15R and 15WC Models

Side-By-Side Installation Instructions

4 Prepare/Install Door Panel

For a complete refreshment center, install two of the 15 series units side by side: 15R and 15WC.

Cut-out width for a side-by-side installation is the total of the widths listed under Cut-Out Dimensions in each unit’s Installation Guide.

For example:

Placing a 15R next to a 15WC would require a cut-out width of:

15-3/16" + 15-3/16" = 30-3/8"

No trim kit is required. However, 1/4-inch space needs to be maintained between the units to ensure unobstructed door swing.

Units must operate from separate, properly grounded electrical receptacles placed according to each unit’s Electrical Specifications.

Door Panel Preparation

A custom door panel can be inserted into the doorframe. Custom door panels can be flat or raised, as long as the maximum panel thickness where inserted into the door reveal (channel) is 1/4"-thick. For raised panels, the depth of the reveal is 1/4" on all four sides.

IMPORTANT

Raised panels will reduce the door’s 90° swing/zero clearance if the unit is installed next to a wall or similar type of structure (see Page 5).

Cut the panel insert to the following dimensions.

Custom 1/4" Dimensions for Black units:

Width: 13-15/16"

Height: 28-5/32"

Custom 1/4" Dimensions for Stainless units:

Width: 13-15/16"

Height: 29-13/32"

The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs.
