U-Line Door Panel Installation Guide 4
Checking Door Alignment
The unit’s door is aligned at the factory before shipment. However,
it’s alignment could have been disturbed during shipment or during
door panel installation.
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
Properly aligned, the door should be 1/8” below the top of
the unit cabinet. NOT flush with the top. See Below.
1. Compare the top edge of the door to the top edge of the
cabinet.
2. If the door edge is 1/8” below and parallel to the top of the
cabinet, the door is aligned. If it is not, note whether the side
opposite the hinge needs to be moved UP or DOWN, and use
the following procedure.
Note: If the door is adjusted correctly, but panel is not square with
the adjacent cabinets, slight adjustment can be made by drilling the
holes in the vinyl coated steel panel slightly oversized.
Adjusting Door Alignment
1. Remove top hinge screw pin. Remove door by tilting forward
and lifting off the bottom hinge pin.
2. With door upside-down, loosen, but do not remove the two
screws on the door’s bottom hinge plate.
3. If the top far edge of the door needs to move UP, move the
hinge plate toward the outside of the door and retighten screws.
If the top far edge of the door needs to move DOWN, move
the hinge plate toward the inside of the door and retighten
screws.
4. Mount the door, recheck alignment and repeat Steps 2 and 3 if
further adjustment is necessary.
5. When top edge of door is parallel to top edge of cabinet,
remove the door and ensure the two screws are secure.
6. Remove the door closers from
the bottom hinge, clean
thoroughly and lubricate the
mating surface with a
petroleum jelly such as Vaseline.
7. Reinstall the closers, lining up
the bosses with holes in hinge
and hinge plate.
8. Mount the door and install top
hinge pivot pin.
Note: The bottom of the panel will line up with the top of the
cabinetry toe kick. Minor adjustments can be made using the
leveler feet. Depending on the height of the toe kick, a small
portion of the door may be visible beneath the panel.
