Install Custom Drawer Front Panel
The warming drawer has an interface that will allow a modest 
range of panel sizes. The actual panel size should be selected by 
the customer and their contractor to suit the desired effect. It is 
recommended that a qualified carpenter make and install the 
custom drawer front and handle(s) to match surrounding 
cabinetry.
1. Install warming drawer unit as instructed by the installation 
instructions provided with the warming drawer.
2. Create the custom drawer front. Below are the minimum and 
maximum dimensions for the custom drawer front. The size 
of the custom drawer front for the warming drawer will vary 
according to the specific installation. The depth of the panel 
will vary in order to have the custom warming drawer flush 
with the surrounding cabinets.
3. It is recommended that if a wood or porous custom drawer 
front is installed, a high quality spar polyurethane finish be 
applied to the inner wood surface.
4. For the lens, drill a 
⁵⁄₁₆" (7.9 mm) diameter hole through the 
appearance side of the custom drawer front. This hole will 
allow the indicator “ON” light to be visible through the custom 
drawer front. To secure the lens, use an adhesive specified for 
plastic to wood application.
5. Install custom handle (not supplied) through custom drawer 
front.
6. The custom drawer front is fastened to the stainless steel 
drawer by driving 6 screws through clearance holes in the 
drawer front into the wooden or other custom made panel.
