Abstract
There is disclosed a refrigerator having an insulated cabinet and a pull-out bottom drawer with an insulated door. The door is mounted to the end of a pair of telescopically extendable guide rails having a rail portion mounted inside the cabinet. A pair of mounting brackets mount the door to the guide rails in a manner that permits the door to be adjusted vertically and horizontally relative to the cabinet. The mounting brackets each have a side plate with four spaced apart apertures positioned adjacent vertically enlarged aligned apertures in the guide rail and through which pass threaded screws. A locking nut is threaded onto the screw to lock the bracket in place relative to the guide rails during assembly. The vertically extending enlarged apertures permit the bracket to be adjusted vertically relative to the rail. The mounting brackets each including a front plate extending inwardly at a right angle from the side plate. The front plate has four spaced apart horizontally enlarged apertures that align with apertures in the door liner and through which threaded screws pass. The horizontally enlarged apertures permit the door to horizontally slide relative to the mounting brackets to permit horizontal adjustment of the door relative to the guide rails and cabinet during door closure.
