Sub-Zero Standard and Accessory Handle Options and Information
Answer:
Any handle can be used on Sub-Zero products that have custom panels. Units ordered framed or stainless steel (/F, /S) come with pro or tubular handles (/PH, /TH).
- Flush inset stainless steel panels come with handles.

Panel Requirements
Overlay and flush inset panels must be a minimum of 5/8" thick to support mounting the handle.
- Panel thickness does not include the backer and spacer panel.
- Handles are installed on the overlay panels prior to being installed on the doors/drawers.
- A recessed fingertip groove is acceptable as long as all specifications are met.

Tips
Any style handle may be used, but keep some guidelines in mind:
- Sub-Zero recommends a handle with two points of attachment. Pulling a knob style handle regularly over time can result in the handle coming loose.
- Detachment is more likely if a handle is attached to the side of a panel.
- There is no minimum handle length. Knobs can be used, but they may not withstand the weight of pulling the doors open every day.
