The doors cannot be pushed into the opening. Only the doors need to be outside the opening to open fully.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello, mike. We appreciate your inquiry. The amount of space required for a refrigerator to open its doors fully depends on the design of the refrigerator itself, particularly the door swing radius. French-door refrigerators, which have two side-by-side doors for the fresh food compartment and a bottom freezer drawer, may require a bit more space. Some models may need around 4 to 6 inches on each side and at the back. We hope his information helps! - Christi
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The refrigerator minus the doors sit at counter depth. So the doors sit out beyond counter depth which allows doors to open freely.
