Replacing an integrated fridge - it won't come out!!

[Guest]

Hi,

Am replacing an integrated fridge (located between dishwasher and stroage cabinet).

Have managed to get the door off no problem but despite lowering the self-levelling feet on the fridge unit the fridge itself doesn't seem to want ot come out. The unit rocks back and forth reasonably freely but won't budge outwards. Any ideas anyone?

counter above is a run of granite so it won't/can;t be an idea to attack it from that direction.

Cheers.

Usually these fridges would be fixed to the underside of the worktop but being granite this won't be the case.

Make sure all the adjustable legs have been lowered. The ones at the front are accessible by hand but the rear ones often are accessed by an adjusting gizmo at the front - usually do-able with a screwdriver.

Lower it down as much as you can, remove the appliance door then lift and pull forward at the same time. It should come out so perhaps a bit of brute force is required.

I've done rip outs where fridges have been siliconed to granite and also the back legs sat on silicone so if you've undone all the screws and it's rocking as stretch says a little bit of force might be all it needs.
