Abstract
An alignment gauge includes a generally u-shaped main body and an alignment member extending therefrom. The alignment gauge is configured to be positioned on the frame of a cabinet during installation of one or more attached components, such as attachment of a pair of doors to a refrigerator cabinet. Specifically, the alignment gauge may be positioned so that the alignment member establishes a proper spacing for the attached components.
