hinge for furniture door for integrated fridge unit

[marc1106]

does that plate have a series of very small holes running in a line through it if so that bracket actually goes in the top of the D/W to secure it to adjacent units, usuallt the brackets for the doors are surface mounted then after slotting the door in place you remove 4 screws from the inside of the appliance door and replace them with longer ones that go through the appliance door into the decor door from inside!

My drawing includes lines of '.'s because the drawing goes out of whack when I preview my posting - so no series of small holes. The only holes in the plate are for four fixing screws - 'O's in the case of my drawing.

However, I didn't know about going through the d/w door from the inside to grab the decor door... will have another look at the plans!

Thanks again!

you dont need to recess them, if you look at the dishwasher you should notice that the top of the door (The plastic moulded area) is proud of the lower area.

ERM,, what if its fully integrated NSK?

that is what i am talking about?

assuming its baumatic (same as f/f) the door is assembled as i described above... the top run of the appliance is proud by about 3/4mm which allows for the brackets on the lower half..

yep, after my post i realised id missunderstood what you were saying

this door config can catch some fitters out, the 2 bottom brackets you would think be left and right, but are the same hand so to speak.

either place them on to the dishwasher and slide them the way they would go on if they were attached to the door, then mark the 4 holes on to the steel. then its down to measuring to the top and side and transfering to the door. OR double sided tape all over and place the door on to it, use cardboard either side inbetween adjacent doors to line it up. then open and secure with other screws.
one of the worst to fit i think. can easily see how it challange a DIYer.

Thanks Prem. I like your idea. The transferring will be a little tricky but should get me pretty close. I haven't had a full go at it yet - saving myself for another w/e of frustration and foul language. And yes, it has been a 'challenge'... or maybe I'm 'challenged' - possibly a combination of both.

I think it's better to adjust the fridge door for the vacancy of some furniture.This hinge was not enough for one door, so it needs a space for the door.

Hello,

I have a similar problem fitting an integrated fridge door. My problem is the width of the housing cupboard. There is not enough room for the hinges at the side, I only have about 13mm and the stand-off of the hinges is more than this especially when they are opening, the result is the hinges pressing against the fridge door. Anyone know of any flatter hinges?

Are you sure that yours is not the type where the door fascia fits to the fridge door itself?

If the appliance is designed to use the cabinet hinges they will supply some plastic sliders that you fix to the back of the door fascia and the side of the fridge/freezer door, otherwise there is a removable plate on the top of the fridge door and some fixing brackets at the bottom.

What do the fitting instructions say?
