Change Stainless Door Handle Style
Topics:
- What is needed to change the handle style on a Sub-Zero, Wolf, or Cove stainless steel door?
- Change from tubular to pro handles on a Sub-Zero, Wolf, or Cove stainless unit
- Change from round or obround standoff handles to square standoff handles on a Sub-Zero or Wolf stainless unit
- Change handles from one style to another on a Wolf or Sub-Zero product
Answer:
- The handles cannot be changed on Classic (BI, CL) Series models.
- To change Designer (IT, IC, ID, IW) models from obround to square standoffs, the standoff is smaller, so visible shadowing may occur.
- Designer Series panels can change between tubular and pro handles. Use the chart on Designer Stainless Steel Panel Dimensions to determine the correct handle length to order for each unit.
- Changing handle length is not possible as stud spacing for the handle standoffs is different for each handle length.
- For 700 and 427(R) models, the handles cannot be replaced on stainless steel panels.
- The handles cannot be replaced on accessory stainless steel panels for UC Undercounter units.
- Pro handles are the only handle option for Professional Refrigeration models (PRO4850, PRO3650, 648PRO).
- Wolf handles are not interchangeable. For example, the E Series Oven handle cannot be used on a Dual Fuel Range.
- Legacy IR Induction Ranges are offered with Pro or Tubular handles. The handles are not interchangeable.
- Pro handles are not available for current Induction Range (IR) models.
The following are exceptions:
- MDD Drop-Down Door Microwave, CSO Convection Steam Oven, SPO Speed Oven, and SO24TE 24" E Series Wall Oven handle style can be changed.
- To change Classic or Undercounter model handles from obround to square standoffs, the standoff is identical in size, so shadowing is not an issue.
