Equip the refrigerator with a television

Because your refrigerator is a built-in appliance, it has a wooden cladding like an outer frame around it. This frame out wood is connected to your refrigerator so the doors open at the same time. You can easily attach a small flat screen TV to the front of this wooden door.

  1. In order to attach a small flat screen TV to the wooden paneling of your built-in refrigerator, the refrigerator door should first be detached from the wooden paneling.
  2. You should now look at the back of the flat screen TV. Here you will find a drilled bracket with which you can actually screw the device to a wall bracket.
  3. Measure the distance between the holes and transfer it to the wooden door. When transferring the hole spacing, you should note that you should mark the holes in such a way that the screen then hangs straight, i.e. on the scales.
  4. If this is the case, you can drill through the holes for screwing. You should then drill another hole through which you can later route the power and antenna cables inside.

Screw the device to the cladding

  1. Now that all the holes for the connection cables of your television have been drilled, you can screw the small flat panel device to the wooden paneling of the refrigerator.
  2. Before screwing, you should have already connected the connection cables to the screen through the holes.
  3. When screwing on, remember to use washers and not overtighten the screws.
  4. Then you have to lead the television cables to the side, between the built-in refrigerator and the wooden paneling, to the rear.
  5. You can stick the hanging cables of the TV set to the inside of the wooden cladding with adhesive tape. Then you can connect the door of the built-in device to the door of the outer cladding and that's it.

You should wear safety glasses when drilling the holes.
