Kitchen Aid 22' fridge cabinet width?

16 years ago

Hi.

We're doing a full kitchen remodel and have decided on the 22' Kitchen Aid Architect Series counter depth model KFCS22EV French Door (no H2O in door)

The cut sheet shows its width as 35-5/8" x 70-7/8 cabinet height (71-7/8 to hinge)

My question: if it's located between a floor-to-ceiling full depth cabinet and another full depth base unit, will a 36" space be enough to allow for fully opening the doors?

Sure, the base unit depth really is 25 to counter top and the fridge has a 30" depth. Is this amount of extra front clearance enough to allow the doors to open?

I'm asking because the dimension guide shows a 2-1/2" clearance requirement to a fixed wall, but the drawing also shows this 2-1/2" between the fridge and an adjacent base unit.

I'll need an answer ASAP as we'll be finalizing the cabinet order later this week.

Thanks!

--Mike
