Custom Panel
For all models, a door panel and handle must be provided. 
Refer to the following charts for panel requirements and 
dimensions.
Do not install a solid panel on the glass door unit. A solid 
door is available as a sales accessory through an autho-
rized Sub-Zero dealer.
The panel cannot exceed the maximum panel weight indi-
cated in the chart below. The depth of each model is 23⁄" 
(587). Allow for panel thickness when planning the finished 
opening depth. 
 CAUTION
As reveals between cabinetry and the unit decrease, 
severe finger pinching can occur while the door is 
closing. 
Finish all sides of the custom panel. They may be visible 
when the door is open or through the glass of glass door 
models.
A D-style handle is recommended. Locate the door handle 
near the edge of the panel opposite the hinge and cen-
tered top to bottom. Stainless steel tubular and pro handles 
are available through an authorized Sub-Zero dealer. For 
local dealer information, visit the find a showroom section
