They are not. They have their own doors, their own seals, their own controls and their own sealed systems — and they have to be aligned to each other as well as to the room. ### Why panel-ready is different - **Weight.** A custom panel is a substantial door front hung off the appliance hinge. - **A second adjustment.** The panel can move on its brackets while the door is perfectly set. - **Height.** A full-height door has more length to go out of true than a half-height one. ### What decides the figure Whether it is an adjustment or a hinge set, and whether one column or a pair. A pair is one visit rather than two. This article is based on: - Official manufacturer documentation - Internal repair procedures - Technician repair history - Company quality standards Before you book ## Questions about viking refrigerator door & panel alignment On a column pair that is usually hinges settling rather than anything failing, and it is correctable. It is also worth doing early — a door that is a few millimeters off is a door that is not sealing. It very often does look shut. A panel that has shifted, a drawer front sitting proud or a bottle on the shelf edge all hold the door off the seal invisibly. This is the cheapest call on the appliance and the one most worth making. We align the appliance and the panel on its brackets. Where the cabinetry itself has moved — which happens — we will tell you plainly, because adjusting the appliance around a moved cabinet only hides it.
