Leveling Case & Refrigerator
1. Place credenza in desired location.
Level the case using the eight total glides
that are on the case. All glides should
contact the floor.
2. Place the blue nylon caps onto the
fridge glides and level. This will give the
fridge the ability to slide with ease.
3. Slide the refrigerator inside the
credenza. It should sit about ¾” from flush &
have a gap of 3/16” from top of fridge to
bottom of case sub top.
Installing Custom Fronts
1. Keep in mind, to create the look of the
credenza, the fronts will be larger than the
instructions included with the refrigerator.
2. On the refrigerator, find the four screws
on the tops side of the top drawer and the
four on the bottom side of the bottom
drawer. These will be the ones holding the
plastic extrusion into place. Remove the
screws furthest to the outside (4 total).
“L” bracket at top of top drawer,
please note that for the bottom
drawer, the “L” brackets will be
mounted to the bottom plastic
extrusion. This will give the ability to
create a tighter drawer gap than
Kitchen Aid’s instructions give.
3. Using the “L” bracket included with the
Nucraft hardware kit, place the slotted side
down over the holes that the screws were
removed from. Flush the front of the “L”
bracket (single hole side) to the front of the
refrigerator door and reattach screws. Do
not use the flat brackets included with
the refrigerator.
4. Place the hook & loop strips on the
refrigerator on the four corners of the steel
portion of the refrigerator face, just inside
the plastic boarder. Locate the top drawer
front. This will be the taller of the two,
measuring 16” roughly in height. Place a
piece of masking tape ¾” down from the top
on the back side of the drawer. Keeping an
even gap left to right of the drawer front and
flush to the doors pre-mounted already.

the top of the lower most slot. Using this
dimension, locate the lower mounting
brackets on the custom face. (from the top
of the bracket that was already attached to
locate the top of the bottom bracket)
7. Attach clips so that the tabs are to the
outside.
8. Replace fridge drawer back onto fridge.
9. Attach custom faces using the mounting
brackets that were just installed. Close
drawer and check alignment and flushness
of the existing doors on the credenza. Slide
unit out and adjust glides if necessary to get
the desired alignment.
10. After making sure the face is located
desirably with rest of the credenza, pre drill
for the “L” bracket and attach screw to lock
into place.
11. For the bottom drawer, follow the same
steps for the top, except use the bottom of
the drawer to locate the front and the
hardware. Try to keep flush with the bottom
of the case doors, but if needed it can float
above or below to help keep an even gap
between drawers to match gaps in-between
drawers and doors.
5. Remove the fridge drawer along with the
custom face attached in place (you will find
detents on the drawer slides to release the
fronts). Draw a line where the fridge front
meets the custom front. Remove the custom
face. Using the Kitchen Aid instructions for
locating the mounting brackets, paying
attention to the location up and down of the
top set only, base the placement of the
brackets from the line that was just drawn
and the dimension given in the Kitchen Aid
instructions.
6. Locate the slots on the fridge front.
Measure the top of the upper most slot to

2. Per step 2 of the GE directions (page 6),
remove the trim. Insert the custom filler
panels Nucraft has supplied. They will be
different then the GE directions in the fact
that they are single piece with a step to fit
into the trim of the refrigerator drawer vs. the
plied version they show. Do not attach the
custom fronts yet. Reattach the trim.
3. Using rubbing alcohol, clean the front
surface of the inserts and back sides of the
custom fronts. Apply four of the hook & loop
strips to the front of each of the inserts.
4. Locate the top drawer front. This will be
the longer of the two, measuring 16 1/8”
roughly in height. Keeping an even gap left
to right of the drawer front and flush to the
top of the doors pre-mounted already on the
credenza and sit the front onto the drawer,
using the hook & loop stips to hold it into
place.

inserts with the correct door gap spacing,
remove the trim.
6. Slide the filler panels out of the trims to
gain access to the back.

correct place, screw in the #8 x 1” wood
screws through the 4 pre-drills in the filler to
the custom front, securing its placement.
8. Slide the filler panel back into the trim
