Zusammenfassung: | A refrigeration appliance includes a compartment for storing food items in a refrigerated environment, and having a door for selectively closing the compartment. The door includes a front panel, a rear panel, and an endcap assembly disposed therebetween at a vertical end thereof. The endcap assembly defines a handle for allowing grip of the door to thereby selectively open and close the door. The endcap assembly includes a plurality of discrete, spaced-apart snap elements along a generally front portion thereof for clamping a distal end of the front panel at a generally vertical extent of the front panel. The endcap assembly and front panel are configured to be maintained aside one another rather than extending therethrough, with the endcap assembly further configured to provide an elastic clamping force to the distal end of the front panel. |
