INTEGRATED PANEL
NOTICE

Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry, the panel may not perfectly align with a door.
The procedure below is designed to provide a finished integrated panel that seamlessly integrates with surrounding cabinetry.

Panel Preparation

A full integrated door panel completely covers the door frame and provides a built-in appearance.

NOTICE
The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).
It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth to avoid splits in the wood when the hardware is installed.

Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the diagram below.
Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color.
Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer.
Optional: Install handles and hardware.

NOTICE
When applying an integrated panel to a unit, ensure that both sides are finished to prevent warping. In some panel installations, the panel may be visible through the glass while the door is open.

Integrated Panel Dimensions

HANDLELESS INTEGRATED DOOR PANEL

The following procedure is designed to provide a finished, handleless solid panel for a 15” (381 mm) door that seamlessly integrates with its surrounding cabinetry.
NOTE: Many cabinet manufacturers provide a ready solution for a handleless, integrated design that can be easily applied to your model. Consult your cabinet manufacturer for applicable design and installation details.
The cabinet manufacturer’s solution to this design and integration detail will often result in an integrated panel solution wherein the size of the panel may result in a height dimension taller than what we specify. This can be achieved provided the additional height is positioned above the appliance door.

NOTICE
The integrated panel aligns with the surrounding cabinetry and, due to differences in cabinetry, may not align perfectly with the door.
The appliance will need up to 34-1/2” (876 mm) to the underside of the counter to leave room for leveling adjustments.
A single prepared panel with an insert must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg). Integrated Panel Preparation

Secure integrated panel to door using clamps. A robust tape may also be used. U-Line recommends the use of bar clamps to secure the panel to the door. If using tape, be certain the tape will not damage the panel finish upon removal.
Using a 7/64″ (3 mm) drill bit, drill 6 pilot holes into the wood panel 1/2″ (12 mm) deep using the holes in the door frame as a guide.
NOTICE
It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth to avoid splits in the wood when hardwood is installed.
Locate 6 of the #6x 1-1/2″ (38 mm) screws provided with your unit.

Using a Phillips screwdriver, place one screw into each of the 6 pilot holes and screw down. Do not overtighten screws.
Ensure the screws sit flush against the bottom of the channel.
Remove clamps from the door.
NOTICE
If the panel requires additional adjustment after removing the clamps, slightly loosen each screw and adjust the panel as necessary. Tighten screws upon completion.

Starting at the corners, re-install the gasket into the gasket channel in the frame. Make sure the gasket is fully seated.
