My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Refrigerator door hitting cabinets?

9 years ago
It looks like the refrigerator door would hit the hardware on the cabinets when it's opened - is this the case? If so, how do the owners address that?

    Luckily, the refrigerator had very detailed installation specs that we were able to consult during design to verify how the doors open and know that it wouldn't conflict with the cabinets or hardware. The refrigerator doors are hinged and beveled so that they can open without affecting the immediately-surrounding cabinetry. Also, they do not open a full 180 degrees, so they don't hit the hardware.
