Two fridge/freezer units?

9 years ago
I am trying to figure out what units you have here. Are there two of the same, fridge on top and freezer on bottom? Any info would be helpful as this seems like a creative solution, which is what we need right now for our new build!

    Hi Noam Green,

    This refrigeration armoire is made up of 3 cabinets and a top. The first cabinet is a tall surround with matching panels made to fit a 30" wide integrated Sub-Zero fridge/freezer. The middle cabinet is a 12" wide tall bookcase. The third cabinet is another tall surround with panels made to fit another integrated 30" wide Sub-Zero fridge/freezer. The top, a decorative pediment, spans all three cabinets.

    The 2 fridge/freezer units are more or less identical, except that only one has an ice-maker. (The fridge doors can be set up as either right or left handed onsite.)

    These fridges were from Sub-Zero's 700 "Integrated" series. This meant that the units could line up with cabinetry to really blend in. (You'll notice the the bottom drawers are the same height as typical base cabinets.) An integrated fridge is different from a simple panel-ready fridge; although both can be fitted with cabinet panels, you may have trouble lining up a non-integrated model with your cabinet toekick height and your countertop height. It has also been a challenge to deal with the ventilation panel normally located at the top of the fridge (but located behind the lower portion of the bottom freezer drawer in this integrated model).

    Sub-Zero has been working on updating their model numbers and unit widths in the past couple of years, so I'm not sure what the new model numbers are. The company has always been incredibly helpful, however, so I'm sure that a good appliance person could help you get the right model.

    Best of luck with your project-
