Help with IKEA kitchen, fridge surround.

7 years ago

I am having a difficult time designing a surround for my refrigerator/freezer with IKEA's setup. The problem is that I am getting separate refrigerator and freezer, then putting them together to make them look somewhat commercial. The model numbers for the units are FGFU19F6QF and FGRU19F6QF and they will be framed with TRIMKITEZ2. The problem I am running into is that this makes for a non-standard cut out. 79" or 75" high (depending if I install the top grille, which I would like to), 66" wide (but need at least 3/4" on either side for the trim kit to overlap), 25 1/4" deep. This makes it so I can't really do the standard refrigerator cabinets over the appliances, as they only come in 30" or 36". So 30" is impossible, as it is just too small. 36" would work, but I would end up with 3" of filler on both sides of the appliances, an the cabinets sitting on top of the filler pieces. Not sure I like that look. My other option is to do filler all around, and have no cabinets on top, which I guess I could just do the 80" cabinets then, instead of the 90" ones for continuing on that wall. These appliances will be in the center of a wall filled with high cabinets. What would you guys think would look the best?
