Custom Wood Overlay Panels
Custom wood overlay panels allow you to blend the exterior of
your refrigerator into the overall kitchen décor, and to use custom
handles for additional design flexibility.
In some cases, your cabinet manufacturer may choose to work
with one panel routed for the different dimensions. Follow these
panel dimension and placement instructions to be sure that the
custom wood overlay panels will fit properly.
