3. Consider where 

the compactor 
will be installed 
and determine 
whether to 
hinge the door 
on the left or 
right side of the 
cabinet.  Since 
the hinge pins 
are permanently 
attached to the 
door pan, simply rotate the door pan until the hinge 
pins are on the desired side. You may want to mark the 
inside of the door pan to indicate the top.

4. To prevent damage to the 

actuator

 on the 

back of door

remove the (2) screws that 
hold it in place. Save the 
actuator and screws.

for wood door:

5. The wood door pan is designed 

to accommodate a ¾” thick 
wood panel that is 14-7/8” 
wide by 29-1\4” tall. 

It is 

recommended that you verify 

the height of the 

door pan prior to 

cutting the wood 

panel to size.

 

Center the door 
pan on the wood 
panel and fasten 
together using 
hardware provided 
in the compactor 
parts bag.

for tile door:

5. The tile door 

pan comes 
preassembled with cement backer board. Tile and 
grout the door pan using traditional tiling methods and 
materials.

6. Purchase a door handle to match your cabinet 

hardware and install per handle instructions.

7.  If the door will be hinged on the left side of the 

compactor, it will be necessary to reverse the 

lower hinge 

bracket

 removed in Step 1. Remove the plastic 

bushing

 

from the hinge bracket and install on the opposite side 
of the bracket. Install the 

door

 onto the compactor 

cabinet by reversing the procedure from Step 1.

8. 

Re-install the 

actuator

 removed in Step 4. Make sure 

the door opens and closes smoothly with the actuator 
entering and exiting the door interlock switch on the
