HANDLELESS INTEGRATED DOOR PANEL

The following procedure is designed to provide a finished, 
handleless solid panel for an 18" (450 mm) door that 
seamlessly integrates with its surrounding cabinetry.

NOTE: Many cabinet manufacturers provide a ready 
solution for a handleless, integrated design that can be 
easily applied to your U-Line 3000 Series model. Consult 
your cabinet manufacturer for applicable design and 
installation details. The cabinet manufacturer’s solution to 
this design and integration detail will often result in an 
integrated panel solution wherein the size of the panel 
may result in a height dimension taller than what we 
specify. This can be achieved provided the additional 
height is positioned above the appliance door.

NOTICE

The integrated panel aligns with the surrounding 
cabinetry and, due to differences in cabinetry, 
may not align perfectly with the door.

The appliance will need up to 34-1/2" (876 mm) 
to the underside of the counter to leave room for 
leveling adjustments.

A single prepared panel with insert must not 
weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).

Integrated Panel Preparation

1. Cut the main panel to the dimensions below. For

details, see the drawings on the next page.

2. Create the top design for the handleless feature and

the 1/8" (3 mm) notch for the insert(s) indicated on
the Top Detail drawing, on the next page.

3. Prepare the insert(s) that will back up the handleless

design. 

Wooden Insert

 – Cut 1/8" (3 mm) thick

wooden insert(s) to the dimensions below.

4. Optional: Stain or finish panel and wooden insert to

desired stain or color. Be sure to closely follow the
instructions provided by the manufacturer.

NOTICE

If finishing panel or wooden insert, all sides 
must be finished to prevent warping.

5. Attach the insert to the panel. Wood glue or equivalent

adhesive should be used to attach insert to panel.
