Be Sure Your New Fridge Will Fit
Don't wait until delivery to confirm your new refrigerator fits both in your kitchen and through all doorways. This guide provides essential measurements and clearances for confident purchasing.
Standard-Depth Refrigerator
Standard-depth refrigerators typically measure 30 to 35 inches in depth, in contrast to counter-depth models that are flush with cabinetry.
Installation Clearances
- ✔️ Allow 3.75 inches of clearance when installing next to a wall to enable the door to open 90 degrees without the handle contacting the wall.
- ✔️ Allow a minimum of 2 inches at the rear for proper air circulation and access to water/electrical connections.
- ✔️ Allow a minimum of 3/8 inches at the sides and top for ease of installation.
For optimal use and full refrigerator door opening, avoid installing the unit directly next to a wall.
Note: The provided dimensions and cutout information are for planning purposes. For comprehensive installation instructions, refer to the manual included with the product or download it from samsung.com.
Walk the Delivery Route
- ✔️ Identify the narrowest opening the appliance must pass through, from the exterior of the home to its final installation location.
