A:Answer Thanks for asking, MandM! When the doors are opened at just a 90 degree angle, they will be in line with the sides of the refrigerator. However, you will need to be able to open them fully in order to remove the center shelf, and to open the crisper drawers fully. If you'd like more information about the spacing needed for this refrigerator, I recommend looking on pages 18 and 19 of the user manual (https://bit.ly/3h7xOtH). ^Jecca
