Required Tools:
• Phillips Screwdriver
• 3/8" Wrench
• 1/8" Drill Bit
• Ten (10) Screws #6
NOTE: THE LENGTH OF OVERLAY PANEL
MOUNTING SCREWS NEED TO BE 3/4” PLUS
THE THICKNESS OF THE PANEL, MINUS 1/4”.
(3/4”+ THICKNESS OF THE OVERLAY PANEL-
1/4”= LENGTH OF SCREW). TYPES AND LENGTHS
OF SCREWS CAN VARY DEPENDING ON THE
MATERIAL USED
SEE PAGES 21-22 FOR OVERLAY PANEL DIMENSIONS
BEFORE INSTALLING.
FOR EASY OVERLAY INSTALLATION, REFRIGERATOR
DOOR REMOVAL IS REQUIRED.
NOTE: DO NOT INSTALL A SOLID PANEL ON A
GLASS DOOR. THIS MAY CAUSE MOISTURE
TO FORM BEHIND THE PANEL RESULTING IN
DAMAGE.
1. Open front door and pull grill forward to remove.
2. To remove door back out two bottom hinge screws
with a 3/8" wrench. Secure door while removing
screws. Remove two Phillips screws from the top
hinge. Save all these screws for later reinstall.
3. Lay door on a safe solid surface. If retrofitting
glass door model be careful not to damage glass.
Lay cardboard or other safe material down before
working on the door. Remove door gasket from the
inside of the door frame. Place gasket to the side
for later reinstall.
4. There are pre marked areas on the front of the
door. Drill these pre marked holes with 1/8" drill
bit. Make sure to go all the way through the door.
NOTE: IF HANDLE IS BEING USED ON OVERLAY
INSTALL IT BEFORE STEP 7 (SEE IMAGE
A). FOR BEST INSTALLATION, SCREWS
ATTACHING HANDLE SHOULD BE RECESSED.
5. It is recommended to clamp the door front on top of
the overlay before drilling pilot holes and installing

panel and door stay aligned with each other while
installing. Once panel is clamped in place, pilot
holes may be drilled into the panel from the rear
side of the door.
