Summary Instructions (cont.) Step 5: Quick Release Knob Set Up Measure the inside hole and cut two sheets of paper to the size for a template. If false panel measures less than 5” in height, a diagonal knob layout will not work. If the length of the panel measures less than 24” do not include 4 cord wrap pairs.

22” IMPORTANT 9” 4 7/8” 4 1/2” 16” 10” ** Rounter or sand edges to opening 14 5/8” ** IMPORTANT: To ensure all curling and flat iron handles can sit inside the cabinet, the back edge of the appliance panel must sit a minimum of 9” from the inside cabinet. If you have a center drain and need the panel to go back further past the center pipe, drill a 1 3/4” half circle into the appliance panel to gain an additional inch.
Step 1: False (Faux) Panel Removal Each cabinet company or maker installs false panels differently. False panels are often stapled, glued, screwed, snapped, or secured using support panels to secure them to the frame. A licensed contractor should determine how your false panel is secured to the frame to then remove it carefully. * If staples or nails are clipped, use a nail punch to push the edge into the wood. You can then use filler to create a smooth surface.
Step 4: Install Appliance Panel If using a support beam(s), use six size 10, 1” screws (not included) to mount the panel brackets directly to the support beam(s). If mounting directly to drywall, use the appropriate screws designed for maximum support and pressure. Step 5: Add Quick Release knobs to False Panel A. Finish the Panel and Inside Edges Often the back of the panel and inside edging of the false front opening are left unfinished.
Step 6: Add hinges to opening and false panel The hinges are designed to install inside the false panel opening and attach to the false panel. Place the hinge against the bottom corner of the opening and add a screw to the top hole, and one to the bottom located on the 3/4” wood. Do this for both hinges. Close both hinges. Measure the dimensions of the false panel. (L1 x H1) Measure the dimensions of the false panel opening.
Custom Cabinet Considerations When a cabinet is being built to meet a clients specifications, we recommend going with a vanity that provides a panel opening that is 22" or more in length. Smaller openings will work, but the larger the false panel opening, the easier it will be for your clients to manage four appliance cords. We also recommend a false panel opening whose height is 5.5". This will create a cord panel that isn't crowded and makes two rows of cords easier to manage.

Unframed Cabinet When a cabinet is unframed with a false panel, there is usually a supporting panel behind it. In order for the false panel to turn into a door, you must create a minimum 5” opening in height with a 3/4” deep rail to mount the hinge and door. To achieve that design, you may have to trim the support panel to provide an upper and lower support beam as described in the Unframed Cabinet diagram.
