Design Guide - Custom Overlay Door Panel
CUSTOM HANDLE DESIGN GUIDE
Custom handles must be used for flush installation. For
custom handle installation, counter-bore holes in rear of
decorative panels must ensure 1/2" (1.27cm) material
thickness remains for handle support.
NOTE: The counterbore must not exceed 1" (2.54cm) in
diameter.

3/4" CUSTOM DECORATIVE PANEL DIMENSIONS
For a more custom appearance, overlay panels may be
installed to give a flush appearance with surrounding
cabinets. The overlay panel must be 3/4" (1.91cm) thick.
Panel attaches to included brackets to provide mounting
to the appliance door.
NOTE: We recommend that decorative panels have
inside corners and edges rounded or beveled by cabinet
maker to avoid sharp edges on the panels. Edges to be
treated should include the top, bottom and hinge side
edges.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Maximum panel weight is 45 lbs.
NOTE: For panels constructed with rails and stiles
(5-panel), the rails and stiles must be a minimum of 2"
(5.08cm) wide.
For Stainless Panel Kits, see Stainless Steel Door
Panel Installation on page 45.
For Custom Panels, use templates provided with the
units to pre-drill holes for mounting panel brackets
(provided with unit). Adjustment screws and instructions
are provided.
