Changing the bin door panel

You can easily change the color of the front panel on the storage bin door. Six colors are available: Black, Almond, Harvest Gold, White, Toast and Platinum.

To change panel:

2.Loosen the screws in both of the side trim pieces.

3.Remove the handle and the handle

insert.

4.Carefully slide the panels out. You will find three panels with six colors.

5.Choose the color you want to show and carefully slide the panels back into the door. NOTE: Be careful not to scratch the panels as they are inserted.

6.Replace the handle insert and tighten

the screws in both side trim pieces. Replace the handle and the screws.

Note: you can make a decorative wood front to match existing cabinets. The panel should be Y4” (6 mm) thick and 17” x llY4” (433 mm x 286 mm). Remove the color panels and break off the ribs on the door insulation to allow for wood thickness.
