(both width and height), thresholds, ceilings, stairways, etc.
The following chart details the exact height and depth of Samsung French Door Refrigerator.
FLOORING
For proper installation, this refrigerator must be placed on a level
surface of hard material that is the same height as the rest of
the flooring. This surface should be strong enough to support a
fully loaded refrigerator, or approximately 106kg. To protect the
finish of the flooring, cut a large section of the cardboard carton
and place under the refrigerator where you are working. When
moving the refrigerator, be sure to pull it straight out and return it
to position by pushing it straight in.

When moving your refrigerator
