INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION
Integrated Panel Dimensions
Metric measurements rounded and optimized.
INTEGRATED FRAME
NOTICE
Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry the panel may not perfectly align
with door. The procedure below is designed to provide a finished integrated
panel that seamlessly integrates with surrounding cabinetry.
Panel Preparation
A full integrated door panel completely covers the door frame and provides a
built-in appearance.
NOTICE
The door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).
It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct
depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardware is installed.
-
Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the diagram below.
-
Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color.
Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer. -
Optional: Install handles and hardware.
NOTICE
When applying an integrated frame to a unit, ensure that both sides are
finished in order to prevent warping. In some frame installations, the panel
may be visible through the glass while the door is open.
Integrated Frame Dimensions
HANDLELESS INTEGRATED FRAME
The following procedure is designed to provide a finished, handleless frame
for a 24″ (600 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 frame solution wherein
the size of the frame 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 frame 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 frame with insert must not weigh more than 20 lbs (10 kg).
Integrated Frame Preparation
- Cut the main panel to the appropriate dimensions below. For details, see the drawings on the next page.
Main panel width| Main panel depth
---|---
23-1/2″ (595 mm)| 28-13/16″ (732 mm) - 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.
- 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.
Wooden insert width| Wooden insert depth
---|---
23-1/2″ (595 mm)| 3-1/2″ (89 mm)
Integrated Frame
-
Optional: Stain or finish frame 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. -
Attach the insert to the frame. Wood glue or equivalent adhesive should be used to attach insert to frame.
Handleless Integrated Frame Dimensions
Wooden Insert Dimensions
EXTENDED INTEGRATED FRAME
NOTICE
Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry the panel may not perfectly align
with door. The procedure below is designed to provide a finished panel that
seamlessly integrates with surrounding cabinetry.
Panel Preparation
An extended integrated panel can be used to maintain alignment with an
adjacent extended cabinet height or a reduced toe-kick/grille application.
-
Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the appropriate diagram on the next page.
-
Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color.
Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer. -
Optional: Install handles and hardware.

(762 mm) tall integrated frame is 2-3/4″
(70 mm). The top/bottom border of the frame must account for any additional length.
Integrated Grille – Plinth Dimensions
PREPARE AND INSTALL INTEGRATED GRILLE (PLINTH STRIP/BASE FASCIA)
-
Use the dimensions provided in the diagram to cut and shape your integrated grille (plinth strip/base fascia) panel. Recommended panel thickness is between 1/4″ (6 mm) and 3/8″ (9 mm).
-
Finish or stain your grille (plinth strip/base fascia) panel to match your surrounding furniture. Finish front, back and edges to prevent warping. Carefully follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for finish application and cure times.
-
Apply double sided tape to the backside of the integrated grill (plinth strip/base fascia). Use the diagram below for reference. U-Line recommends 3M™ VHB™ tape, a high strength bonding tape.
Apply Tape To Shaded Area -
Remove backing paper from double sided tape.

Carefully align grille (plinth strip/base fascia) over integrated panel and press into position.
INTEGRATED GRILLE (PLINTH STRIP/BASE FASCIA) DIMENSIONS
Integrated Panel Installation
-
Fully open door.
-
Starting at corner, pull gasket away from door.
-
Continue to pull gasket free from gasket channel.
-
Upon removal, lay gasket down on a flat surface.
-
Align top of panel with top edge of door. Center panel on door. (For 3036/3090 models, align panel on the hinge side-edge of door.)
NOTICE
Due to differences in floor construction or surrounding cabinetry, the panel may not sit flush with the top of the door. -
Secure integrated panel to door using clamps. A robust tape may also be used. U-Line recommends the use of bar clamps to secure the panel to the door. If using tape, be certain the tape will not damage panel finish upon removal.
-
Using a 7/64″ (3 mm) drill bit, drill 6 pilot holes into the wood panel 1/2″ (12 mm) deep using the holes in the door frame as a guide.
NOTICE
It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardwood is installed. -
Locate 6 of the #6x 1-1/2″ (38 mm) screws provided with your unit.
-
Using a Phillips screwdriver, place one screw into each of the 6 pilot holes and screw down. Do not overtighten screws.
-
Ensure the screws sit flush against the bottom of the channel.
-
Remove clamps from door.
NOTICE
If panel requires additional adjustment after removing clamps, slightly loosen each screw and adjust panel as necessary. Tighten screws upon completion. -
Starting at the corners, re-install the gasket into the gasket channel in the frame. Make sure the gasket is fully seated.
