if you are planning to build in a standard fridge or freezer you need to make sure you have got really good ventilation all around, and especially behind the fridge when the cabinet doors are shut. . . . Other wise your power bills will rocket. Fridges and freezers need the air flow to carry the heat away from the coils at the back to maintain efficiency. Liitle or no air movement and the fridge motor will run for much longer periods,

I was going to do this in my kitchen and decided against it for a few reasons. Difficulty to clean sides and back of fridge, cupboard door comes easily out of alignment, plastic parts are very cheaply made and not there to last a long time, need to call back kitchen people if you want to change the fridge and also most fridges sit 10cm or so in front of the edge of the cabinetry so it won't be aligned with the rest of the kitchen cupboards. That's a few off the top of my head. I ended up going for a stainless steel, much better in the long run.

Hi. Are you able to post image of the cup pull you refer to and what material it's made from, please? I've seen fairly large doors for integrated appliances with simple knobs used, or are you looking for something different? Here's a link I found: https://www.bauers.com.au/category/handles-0 Is this too traditional?

Hi Anita, just saw your dilemma! Have you thought about using an automated system for opening your integrated fridge rather than a handle? Hettich and also Blum have their own version of this, would be a recommendation to check them out, as this will provide you a great solution for your integrated fridge. Thanks, Rebecca
