Door Panel—Model 424

Model 424 is offered in two design applications; stainless steel (/S) and overlay (/O). Each of these designs are available as a glass door (G) model.

The stainless steel model 424/S is available as a glass door (G) model only, with the classic finish and is shipped from the factory with the decorative stainless steel door panel and matching handle in place.

The overlay model 424/O is available as a glass door (G) or solid door (S) model and is designed to accept a decorative door panel to match surrounding cabinetry.

The door panel and the handle will be provided by the customer.

Before beginning installation, check for the correct components for the fit and finish desired. All overlay doors require a decorative panel 23 3 /

" (603) by 30 1 /

" (764) and a minimum 5 / 8 " (16) thick.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For installations at or above 5,000'

(1524 m) in altitude, a special high altitude glass door unit

(HA) must be ordered.

If you have questions, contact your Sub-Zero dealer or cabinet supplier. Additional panel information can be found in the Sub-Zero design guide.

A solid panel must not be installed on a glass door unit, as this may cause moisture to form behind the panel.

Models 424 and 424FS Installation

11 subzero.com

Overlay Door Panel—Model 424

Inspect the door panel for the minimum 5 /

" (16) thickness, the finished inside edge. The glass door has a 10 lbs (5 kg) weight limit and the solid door has a 20 lb (9 kg) weight limit. Refer to the wine storage section of the Sub-Zero design guide for additional panel information.

Decide if the handle will be attached through the glass door frame or just through the decorative door panel. If it is just through the door panel, the handle must be attached first.

Decorative panels are attached to the model 424 door using #8 x 5 /

" square drive screws passing through the door frame from the rear, behind the gasket into the panel.

The door panel is marked for screw locations by the use of

‘tenon centers’, which are temporarily inserted into the

1 /

" (6) diameter holes in the front of the glass door frame.

Refer to the illustration below.

With the wine storage unit secured in position and the door closed, the panel is held in the desired position on the door and rapped by hand from the front, putting center marks on the rear surface of the panel. If the door panel is made of such a material that pre-drilling is needed, all of the mounting holes should be marked. If not, only enough holes to hold the panel in place temporarily, are necessary.

The door panel is then lowered from the door frame, tenon centers removed, the door opened and the screws driven into the panel through the black tape on the door frame, using the center marks to locate the screws.

The screw holes inside the door are hidden under a cover flap on the door gasket. It is necessary to lift the flap to insert the screws. Use as many screws as necessary to hold the door panel in place properly.

IMPORTANT NOTE: After the first three or four mounting screws are in place, but not completely tightened, close the door and check your panel fit. This is the time to make small adjustments. Once you are satisfied with the appearance, open the door and apply the remainder of the screws. Check all screws for tightness.

The metal frame on the glass door has numerous mounting holes on each side of the door. This is to accommodate the Sub-Zero accessory handles and provide for easy attachment of the handle through the door frame.

If you choose not to use the pre-drilled handle mounting holes, it will be necessary to fasten the handle from the rear of the door panel only, or drill one or more additional holes through the metal frame of the glass door.

The cross section illustration shows how this hole passes through the door frame. The hole center is on the small locator groove in the front of the frame. A 1 /

" (6) diameter hole is made in the front wall of the extrusion and a 13 /

(11) diameter hole through the rest of the frame.

Kickplate/grille installation.

Door Panels

Models 427 and 427R are available as a glass door (G) or solid door (S) model. Each of these wine storage units are set up at the job site as either the stainless steel or integrated design.

Stainless steel panels in three finishes in most cases; classic (/S), platinum (/P) and carbon (/B)—available as sales accessories—may be configured several ways and are shipped separately. Stainless steel panels are shipped with matching handles in place.

The integrated design uses custom wood or other decorative panels and handles provided by the customer.

Model 427R requires solid panels on the drawers that may match the door panel, or be complementary. The model

427R stainless steel drawer panel set and stainless steel door panel are ordered and shipped as two items.

The solid door model 427/S or 427R/S—with no glass window—requires a different door panel than the glass door design.

Before beginning installation, check for the correct components for the fit and finish desired. The door and drawers (model 427R) require a decorative panel that is a minimum 5 /

" (16) thick.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For installations at or above 5,000'

(1524 m) in altitude, a special high altitude glass door unit

(HA) must be ordered.

If you have questions, contact your Sub-Zero dealer or cabinet supplier. Additional panel information can be found in the Sub-Zero design guide, or visit our website at subzero.com.

A solid panel must not be installed on a glass door unit, as this may cause moisture to form behind the panel.

Models 427 and 427R Installation

Stainless Steel Door Panel

Before installing the stainless steel door panel, check the panel carefully. Options are available for kickplate/grille height, overall height, door swing and door lock.

The stainless steel panel is mounted to the door by passing the #8–32 x 5 /

" screws provided, through holes in the door frame from the rear, and into the threaded holes in the door panel. Refer to the illustration below. The screw holes inside the door are hidden under a cover flap on the door gasket. It is necessary to lift the flap to insert the screws.

After the door panel installation is complete, apply the cover patches or plugs provided over the holes on the inside surface of the door.

For installation of stainless steel panels on model 427R drawers, refer to model 427R drawer panels on page 24.

The cover patches or plugs are part of the insulation system on the door of the wine storage unit. Be sure to cover all the holes in the door that were used.

Additional 90° door stop kits (7005865) are available through your Sub-Zero dealer. To obtain local dealer information, visit the showroom locator section of our website, subzero.com.

The 90° door stop will be installed in the top hinge of the door. To install, open the door to approximately 90°. At the top of the door, insert the door stop down between the door hinge and the door closer arm. Insert the screw through the door stop and into the door as shown in the illustration below.

Panel Installation

Before you install the front panel, refer to panel specifications for framed, overlay or flush inset applications and be sure you are working with the panel design called for in your installation. If your customer has chosen the stainless steel design, the unit has been shipped complete with a finished stainless steel look. It will not be necessary to install a front panel or handle hardware. In your final preparation for stainless steel units, use a stainless steel cleaner to remove any marks. Abrasive cleaners should not be used, as they may scratch the surface.

If your customer has ordered either a framed or overlay model, you will be installing a front panel to give the unit the custom Sub-Zero look.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For overlay models, there are two design applications—overlay and flush inset. Be sure to use the correct panel size for your application.

Model WS-30 Installation

Framed Panel

If your customer has chosen a framed design application, make sure that the panel you are about to install matches dimensions listed in the framed panel specifications on the following page. Additional panel design information can be found in the Sub-Zero design guide and on our website, subzero.com.

If the thickness of the custom panel is less than a 1 /

" (6), back it up with a sheet of shim material to build the total thickness to a 1 /

" (6). If the panel is thicker than a 1 /

" (6), rout an edge around the panel to achieve a proper fit.

Refer to the illustrations.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The weight of the framed panel must not exceed 75 lbs (34 kg).

IMPORTANT NOTE: For model WS-30, routing, recessing or optional extended handles may be required on raised panels for finger clearance under the handle.

FRAMED PANEL INSTALLATION

To install the framed panel, the door handle must be removed. To install framed panels, first remove the door trim molding. Insert a screwdriver tip into the top corner slot on the handle side and pop out the trim molding.

Refer to the illustration below.

With a Phillips screwdriver, remove the handle. Slide the panel into the frame on the door. With the panel in position, replace the handle. Be sure the panel is inserted completely into the channel for proper fit and alignment.

To reinstall the trim molding, insert the top of the trim molding into the grooves at the top of the door and work downward, snapping the trim molding into the clips on the handle.

RAISED PANEL

With some door panel designs, you may have to rout, recess or use optional extended handles to allow for finger clearance. This is particularly true if your unit has raised panels greater than 1 /

Check the location of offset when you’re using specific routing for the grip area only. Refer to the Sub-Zero design guide for a full-scale template of the standard full-length handle and panel. Use this template to lay out your panel design for finger clearance when a standard full-length handle is used.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The weight of the framed panel must not exceed 75 lbs (34 kg).

A solid panel must not be installed on a glass door unit, as this may cause moisture to form behind the panel.

Frequently Answers and Questions

How do I connect my wine storage unit to a home alarm system?

The installation guide includes instructions on connecting your Wine Storage unit to a home alarm system. You will need to connect the alarm wires to the spade connectors in the compressor compartment and ensure that the alarm circuit is used as a low-voltage, low-current device only.

What are the electrical requirements for my wine storage unit?

Your wine storage unit requires a 115 V AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit breaker and electrical supply. It is important to use a separate circuit for this appliance and ensure the grounding plug is connected to a mating 3-prong grounding-type wall receptacle.

What are the dimensions for the rough opening for my wine storage unit?

The installation guide provides specific rough opening dimensions and door swing clearance for each model. You can refer to the illustration on the relevant page for your specific model.
