• The wider vertical piece belongs on the hinge side.
• Use the full-length standard handle set if the framed panel is a flat 1/4" thick panel.
• Use the full-length extended handle set (qty 2) if the framed panel is raised or thicker than 1/4" in the center of the panel.
• Refer to the Sub-Zero Design Guide for more information on:
  • A flat 1/4" thick panel compared to a thicker routed panel.
  • The full-scale template of the full-length standard handle compared to the full-length extended handle.
• The louvered grille insert will need to be purchased due to any previous decorative framed grille panel on an earlier Sub-Zero series not being able to be installed on to the current Classic models.
• Louvered grille inserts are available for standard 84" finished height, 83" reduced height, and 88" extended height applications.
• To remake a framed grille panel, the panel dimensions can be found in the Sub-Zero Design Guide.
• It is possible to reuse a stainless steel panel with the retrofit kit, but the look is less desirable. A new stainless steel panel is recommended.
