A Summerset outdoor rated refrigerator keeps drinks at the island, and this cold storage page also holds wine coolers, drop-in ice chests and trim kits. Choose from 15, 22 and 24 inch fridge widths, including a two drawer option for a narrow walkway. Start with your opening and the drinks you want to keep nearby. Each fridge and wine unit needs an outlet in the island, while the ice chests need a drain line.


Summerset outdoor refrigerators in 15, 22 and 24 inch widths

Outdoor rated means sealed electronics and a compressor made for patio heat and cold, unlike an indoor fridge. The 15 inch glass door fridge holds about 89 cans and has a lock. The 22 inch compact refrigerator holds about 156 cans on four wire shelves and has a reversible door, with 4.3 cubic feet of space compared with 5 in the 24 inch fridges. The 24 inch one holds about 161 cans behind a stainless steel door or tinted glass, while the two drawer version holds about 141 cans without swinging into the walkway. Compare other brands on our outdoor refrigerators page.

Wine coolers and ice chests

The single zone units hold 34 bottles at 15 inches wide or 52 bottles at 24 inches, the biggest wine capacity the maker makes. The 24 inch dual zone holds 46 bottles, with whites and sparkling above and reds below. Browse our outdoor wine chillers to compare bottle storage across brands.

Each ice chest drops into the countertop and uses insulated stainless steel construction, with no power or water line needed. Choose the 17 by 24 inch bin for 20 pounds of ice or the 28 by 21 inch bin for 40 pounds and three removable garnish containers. Plan a drain line from the bottom drain plug. The beverage and prep station has its own ice bin on the Summerset sinks page, while the maker's kegerator and its single and double tap kits are here too, and you can compare kegerators from other brands under outdoor kegerators.

The cutout and the trim kit

Built in means the appliance slides under the counter with its front flush against the island face. Match the cutout to your chosen unit before you build. Trim kits frame the raw edge and surrounding gap, with options for 15 inch units, 22 inch fridges and 24 inch fridges and wine units. You can also find these frames among Summerset accessories, but the kegerator needs its own larger frame. Plan neighboring doors and drawers with Summerset island storage and the layout through our outdoor kitchen hub.

Your refrigeration questions

Do you need a special fridge for an outdoor kitchen?

Yes, choose an outdoor rated fridge with sealed electronics and a compressor made for patio heat and cold. An indoor fridge is not made for those conditions. The 22 inch models are approved for indoor or outdoor use, and every fridge needs an outlet in the island.

What is the difference between a Summerset refrigerator and a Summerset wine cooler?

The fridges hold cans and sides at 32 to 50 degrees. The wine coolers hold bottles at 41 to 64 degrees on adjustable racks that pull out behind tinted glass, without vibration disturbing sediment. Single zone holds one temperature, while dual zone separates whites above from reds below.

Can the door on a Summerset outdoor refrigerator be switched to open the other way?

The 22 inch and 24 inch fridges let you position the door hinge on the left or right. The two drawer version has no door swinging into a tight walkway. Check your walking space before choosing a Summerset outdoor refrigerator.
