Two week update. Got door ordered and bought this RSK-300 REEFER skimmer silencer 3D printed from @Butuz. This silencer is quite a bit quieter than the stock. Getting controller board wired will take pictures of it.
@Butuz I got some initial information from @CDavmd about the doors he bought and his contact with the Cronos Door company but I had quite a bit of problems ordering it. I originally used the program at Cronos Design Door Online website and cart to select all the details about my door and pay for it. The account manager I was assigned to (must be a big company) emailed me to let me know I left some information out and overpaid. We worked out the details over several emails then he emailed me an estimate which he wanted me to sign and send back. Well I faxed the signed copy and an hour later his secretary emailed me to tell they have no working fax and that I would have to scan the signed copy and email it back. I have no means to scan paper so I took it to a computer/office supply store where they scanned it and sent it off at 5 PM Friday, May 17. Well May 18 I flew out from Montana to Illinois for my son's graduation and rushed back on May 20. The next day I opened an email from the account manager I've been working with and he said he didn't get the scan. Scanned the paper again, emailed it, now it's almost two weeks and haven't heard from the company. I will wait a couple more days and then call or email. Whew!!
@CDavmd thanks for the info, I will check out @JDowns . Good luck with your doors @Butuz .Hi guys
Just an FYI-
I believe the height of all reefer doors is the same. The width is what you will need to measure carefully.
Regarding hinges- Their hinges will require you to drill new holes in the cabinet (preferable). You can use the original Reefer hinges but it will require drilling the door for new screw pilot holes ( a bit more difficult due to aluminum material).
I was put in contact with Cronos by @JDowns. Check out his build. Crazy impressive! He has details on how to drill the aluminum if you choose that route.
Cheers
I screwed up with my door hinge placement holes but I can make it work. I am lucky Cronos made the hinge holes compatable for the original Reefer hinges even though the ones on mine are a little off in height and the screws holes are a little off. I missed the part of CDavmd's post above that he believes all reefer door heights are the same. The 170 is a little shorter in height. I will get pictures tonight when I get home tonight. JDowns had to drill the large >1" hole for the reefer hinge part that goes in the recessed door hole and I thought Cronos was going to put on their own hinges on. I didn't read the estimate agreement carefully and if any of you buy a Cronos door make sure they get the hinge part right !!!!Hi guys
