The refrigerator doors form the structure of the panel and are its insulator. They will be glued side by side, in the height. The difference in thickness of the doors does not matter, they are aligned on the front face, on the interior side of the panel.
- Cut the doors so that they are all the same length.
- Sand the doors
- Place the doors on two rafters, length against length, metal sheet side down.
- Make a joint along the length of the doors then glue them.
- Cut 4 battens to form a frame on the panel.
- Sand the battens
- Put putty on the width of each batten and glue them under the frame, against the sheet metal, using clamps. Do not over tighten to have a good putty thickness (>1mm).
- Let dry.
- Turn the frame over on the rafters and make seal with putty inside and outside the frame and between the doors.
- Smooth the joints with the finger. To smooth without "lumps" and to avoid getting putty on your fingers, dip your finger in soapy water regularly.
- Let dry
