How much clearance is needed at the front for the doors to open? I would like to build my cabinet side panels to cover the sides of the refrigerator as much as possible for a built in look. null

When side doors are open, they need 3/4 inch extra space on each side. See photos. So I'd suggest an inch extra space on each side of this frig for built in width

Hi, . Please allow at least 24 inches (610 mm) in front of the refrigerator to open the doors, and at
least 2 inches (50.8 mm) between the back of the refrigerator and the wall ^Vanessa
