Custom Panelled Refrigerator

Step 6 Bottom door

the bottom door is done the same way as the top, except here we encounter the trickiest and least elegant part of the project. there is a flange on the bottom of the freezer door hinge. when the freezer door is opened the flange swings out, and allowance must be made for it in the trim on the fridge door. the best way to figure out how to make the necessary cuts is simply to hold the pieces involved in place and observe the path of the flange as the freezer door is opened. the wood can be trimmed with chisel, a rotary tool, or freehand on the miter saw (be very careful!).

enjoy your beautiful fridge and the thousands of dollars you saved!
