Door swing dimensions

If boards are placed before installation of
refrigerator,
locate boards so the bottom surface of
the boards are 84 inches (213 cm) from the floor.
During installation, raise the refrigerator up so there
is 1/4 inch (6 mm) maximum between top of
refrigerator and bottom of anti-tip boards.

If solid soffit is 1 inch (2.5 cm) above
refrigerator,
anti-tip wood boards are not required.

If solid soffit is not available or soffit is more than
1 inch (2.5 cm) above cover,
center wood boards
on rear wall 1/4 inch (6 mm) maximum above
refrigerator. Attach wood boards to wall studs with
wood screws — making sure that screws are
engaged in wall studs 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) minimum
and that boards extend 2 inches (5 cm) minimum
over the top rear of refrigerator compressor cover.
