“If the fridge is tight against a wall on the side, will the door still open? The space I have is the exact dimensions of this unit. One side against the wall and the other by a counter. Need to know of the door next to the wall will open properly. It would be the refrigerator side not the freezer side if that makes a difference.”

Thanks for the question. Samsung recommends leaving at least 2" on the side of the RS25J500DSR that would be opening into a wall, and 3/8" minimum on the other side, for circulation, ease of movement and to allow the doors to swing open. If your space is exactly 35-3/4" wide, I would suggest considering an alternate, narrower model. Samsung doesn't have side by side refrigerators available in widths less than 35-3/4", but there are several French Door models available that would be more appropriate for your location. - Ms. Samsung
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.the handle itself produces about 2 inches from the door, and to get to a 90 degree opening there is an addition ~1 inch protrusion from the door itself. so I would count at a bare minimal 3 inches from the wall to open at a 90 degree angle. If you open it any less, it would become a bit tight to move in there.
