A:AnswerHi JanFL - Thanks for considering GE Model GTS21FSKSS! Yes, the door swing is reversible to suit your installation needs. Also, we do not rate the sound level of our refrigerators, which means we are unable to provide a decibel level while they are running. Our top- freezer refrigerators are manufactured with as quiet and operation as possible. The type of installation (built-in or freestanding), floor type (wood, tile) and room acoustics can all affect the normal operating sounds that you may hear. We’d love to have you in the family. Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue
