Our refrigerators come standard-depth or counter-depth. Standard-depth refrigerators extend a few inches from counters, while counter-depth models are more flush for a sleek, seamless look. Both come equipped with innovative features so you never have to compromise on style for functionality.

What makes LG refrigerators stand out

Here are just a few of the innovative features found in some of our most popular refrigerators—all family-friendly and designed to make life in your home easier.

Zero Clearance™ Hinge System

InstaView® Window

Counter-Depth MAX™

Craft Ice™

Full-Convert Drawer™

Zero Clearance™ Hinge System

No more compromising with tight spaces. Our Zero Clearance™ hinges and thin door design mean you can install your fridge where you might have limited clearance, such as next to a wall or adjacent cabinets. You can enjoy a nearly built-in look that still allows you to fully open both French doors.*

InstaView® Window

Take stock of your fridge without having to open the door. Simply knock twice on the glass panel and the interior will light up. The door stays closed, which minimizes cold air loss and helps keep your food fresher, longer.

Counter-Depth MAX™

LG’s Counter-Depth MAX™ provides the capacity you typically get in a standard-depth refrigerator in a sleek, counter-depth design that blends seamlessly with surrounding cabinets. Stylish and spacious up to 27 cu. ft., the Counter-Depth MAX has ample space for your favorite foods, keeping them conveniently organized and within easy reach.

Craft Ice™

Savor drinks your way. Dual ice makers can produce up to 4 types of ice—standard ice cubes, crushed ice, mini cubes and LG's exclusive round Craft Ice™. It’s crafted to melt slower and help beverages taste their best for longer.

Full-Convert Drawer™

Give yourself extra refrigerator or freezer space—as you need it. With just the touch of a button, you can select from 5 different temperature settings for all kinds of items such as chilled wine, fresh seafood and frozen treats.

*For optimal performance, LG recommends 0.16 inches (4 mm) clearance between the sides of the refrigerator and the wall.

How to measure for a new refrigerator

It’s important to know where your fridge will fit and how you want it brought into your home. Taking accurate measurements for both delivery and installation before you order will save you time and energy—and potentially a headache.

Measure the space you want to put your new fridge in. You want to find the maximum height, width and depth and account for any potential baseboards, trim or uneven floors.

Note tight entryways and narrow hallways in your home for delivery. Use the measurements you gathered earlier to ensure that your new refrigerator can make it into your kitchen.

LG Refrigerator height width depth measurement

Height

Measure for the height in multiple spots to account for uneven floors.

Subtract 1 inch from the smallest measurement to ensure appropriate ventilation.

Width

Measure for the width in multiple spots to ensure you’re accounting for baseboards, trim and warped walls.

This time, subtract 2 inches from the smallest measurement.

Depth

Make sure there’s enough space in front of your refrigerator for the doors to open without impact and for people to pass by.

After measuring, subtract 1 inch from the smallest side for ventilation needs.

Smart features have become the standard for modern refrigerators, putting control and convenience in your hands.
