LAUNDRY INSTALLATION GUIDE
You found the LG washer and dryer that fit your lifestyle—now make sure they fit your
space. These LG models are larger than typical front load washers and dryers, so use
this guide to ensure your purchase can be successfully delivered and installed.
FIT THE SPACE
Carefully measure the width, height and depth
of the opening where the washer and dryer
will be installed. Be sure to include door, floor
and wall moldings in your measurements.
For height, measure to the bottom of overhead cabinets, if you have them.
For depth, be sure there’s enough room to fully open washer and dryer doors.
START at the point where the washer and dryer will be unloaded
from the delivery truck and walk the path that the appliances will
take from there to the laundry room.
Any gates or arbors on
the path to the door must
be at least 30" wide.
All doors must be at least 30" wide at their narrowest
point. Be sure to account for knobs, latches, closers
and screen doors.

All hallways must be at least 30" wide
at their narrowest point, including
shelves or other wall-mounted items.

For corners or stairway landings,
you’ll need 43.4" to clear a 90° turn.

Your new LG washer and dryer pair requires a MINIMUM AREA

CLEAR THE WAY
GET IT INSTALLED
If your purchase includes installation, your LG washer and dryer will be unboxed, put in place, connected to the appropriate
sources and leveled. Then they’ll be tested to make sure that everything works correctly. All packing material will be removed
and your home restored to its original condition.
