How Thick Is a Refrigerator Door?

Published in Refrigerator Dimensions 2 mins read

Based on the provided reference, a refrigerator door is typically 4 inches thick.

According to the information provided from February 28, 2020, in the mid-front section, a refrigerator door—including its gasket—measures 4 inches thick.

This measurement gives you a clear idea of the depth of the door itself when viewed from the side or top. It's important to note that this figure includes the door panel, insulation, and the door gasket (the seal that keeps the cold air inside).

While the thickness is a direct measurement, the reference also provides other useful dimensions related to opening the doors, which impact the space needed around the appliance:

  • Refrigerator Door Swing: When the refrigerator door is opened to a 90-degree angle, the total distance needed from front to back is 50 inches.
  • Freezer Door Swing: When the freezer door is opened to a 90-degree angle, the total distance needed from front to back is 45 ¼ inches.

Here's a summary of the key dimensions mentioned in the reference:

Component Measurement Description
Refrigerator Door Thickness 4 inches In the mid-front, including the gasket
Refrigerator Door Swing (90°) 50 inches Distance front to back when fully open (90°)
Freezer Door Swing (90°) 45 ¼ inches Distance front to back when fully open (90°)

Understanding these dimensions is crucial for planning the installation location, ensuring there is enough clearance for the doors to open fully for easy access to the interior.

For more details on specific models, consult the manufacturer's specifications. However, the reference provides a standard measurement for the door thickness.
