Outdoor Fridge Stuck

[SlappyMyFace]

I have a 2021 Bullet 290BHS, and I want to remove the outdoor mini fridge. We never use it, and would love the extra storage space. The problem is that it will not come out. The wood shelves seem to have been built around it, and when I try to get the fridge out it either makes contact with the wood trim or the metal door frame. The space is about 1/4 inch too narrow to remove the fridge. Keystone says it's "built as designed," and will not offer any assistance... which seems nuts to me.

I'm thinking that removing the storage door and frame is the easiest approach. I can see 4 screws and some caulk holding it in. It seems I can just scrape back the caulk and unscrew the frame, then reverse the process when the fridge is out. Does that seem right?

Sounds like it would work. I would use a sharp razor knife on the seams where the “caulk” is so it doesn’t tear or pull color off.

Whatever they built you can un-build. Sounds like you have a plan. When I took my fridge out (same reasons as you) I found a couple of small, unseen brackets that it slide onto to hold it. Not sure yours will be the same but mine is a 2019 Bullet Premiere so there might be similarities. But I did not have to do all the reconstruction you are.

Maybe removing the door would help. Also check bottom and sides for brackets that may hinder removal.

Can you post a picture?

I attached some pictures. The metal door frame and the wood trim on the other side seem to be the issue. One of them has to go to get the fridge out. Also, there are no brackets holding the fridge, just a strap.

While if one has to go. It would be the wood trim. I wouldn’t mess with the door frame. The wooden trim once removed would be a easy fix when done. The trim probably just has a few small grades in it holding it on m

Just curious but would it be feasible to remove the trim panel on the inside of the trailer and remove it that way? it would be easier to nail that rear wall on the inside rather than messing with the outside of the trailer. Just a thought
