“What opening do I need, when the fridge is standing next to the wall? Is it 27 1/8" wide, to allow me to open the door and have enough side clearance?”

Hi 1234- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for considering model GBE10ESJSB! We encourage you to view the Quick Specs for approximate product dimensions at this link: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=GBW10ESJSB_c2.pdf - The width with door open 90 degrees less handle is 25". The interior drawers can be accessed with the door(s) at 90 degrees, most product specifications list the Width w/Door Open 90 Degrees. Additional 17" clearance is needed to remove the drawers or to open the door(s) if the adjacent wall is deeper than the refrigerator case depth (depth w/o doors 24-1/4"). Also, allow the following air clearances: Back 3", Side 1", Top 4". Thanks for checking with us!

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
Assuming the wall is on the right, you would need ~18" opening to fully open the door.
