Hello there, Marty! Based on the Frigidaire installation/manual guidance for top-freezer refrigerators (same design as this 18.3 cu. ft. model):

- No, the doors will NOT open fully if the hinge side is right up against a wall.
- They can bump into or be restricted by the wall unless you leave extra clearance beyond the minimum.

If you must place it in a corner:
Put the handle side toward the wall (hinge away from the wall), or
Leave a few inches of extra space, not just the bare minimum, so drawers and bins can fully slide out. - Maico

This is my situation.  The door does not open past 90 degrees.  This would be ok except I am not able to remove the freezer shelf so I have to accept where it was placed.
