Installing the Door
1. If the cabinet already used an overlay door, there is no
need to change the hinges.
2. Install the new Replacement Top Hinge onto the unit
(see
Figure 13
).
3. Install the pivot post into the new Replacement Bottom
Hinge (using the Phillips screwdriver) and install the
hinge onto the unit.
4. Replace the door closure assembly onto the bottom
pivot post (see
Figure 14
). Be sure that bosses on
closers align with holes in hinge and hinge plate.
IMPORTANT
Pivot posts must be cleaned. Closers must also be clean
and greased to ensure proper operation.
5. Place the modified door onto the pivot post.
6. Position door and install the pivot post into the top
hinge (using the Phillips screwdriver).
7. Adjust door as needed for proper closure.
8. Check to see that light goes off when the door closes.
9. Reinstall the door shelves by lining up the bosses and
first pushing straight in, then down at a 45° angle.
Checking Door Alignment
The unit’s door is aligned at the factory before shipment.
However, its alignment could have been disturbed during
shipment or during door panel installation.
IMPORTANT
Properly aligned, the door should be 1/8" below the top of
the unit’s cabinet, NOT flush with the top (see
Figure 15
).
1. Compare the top edge of the door to the top edge of
the cabinet.
2. If the door edge is 1/8" below and parallel to the top of
the cabinet, the door is aligned. If it is not, note
whether the side opposite the hinge needs to be moved
UP or DOWN, and use the following procedure.
Note:
If door is adjusted correctly, but panel is not square
with the adjacent cabinets, slight adjustments can be
made by drilling the holes in the vinyl coated steel panel
slightly oversized. See
