FULL OVERLAY PANEL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 5: Drill hinge clearance holes in overlay
panel
Set the overlay panel on the door front, align the edges,
and clamp together. Clamp the panel firmly but be careful
not to damage the door or the panel. Mark center of hinge
adapter hole on wood panel, top and bottom. (See Figure
8.) Remove wood panel from door and drill 5 ⁄

” (8mm) di-
ameter clearance holes into the overlay panels 3 ⁄

” (20mm)
deep. These will be clearance holes for the top and bottom
hinge pins.
This is also a convenient time to locate and drill the holes
for your handle. Most often the handle is to match that of
the surrounding cabinetry. If your handle attaches from the
back-side of the custom panel, locate the mounting holes
while the panel is attached to the door and cabinet. After
the panel is removed from the door, drill the mounting holes
from the front, to the recommended diameter of the handle
manufacturer. Counter bore the back-side of the panel so
the screw heads do not interfere with the surface of the
door.
Step 6: Drill panel mounting holes
Re-clamp the panel to the door per step 5 and drill the
screw pilot holes for attaching the overlay panel to the door.
Select the size of the hole from Table C. Be careful not to
drill the pilot holes through the overlay panel, ( 1 ⁄
