Summerset Trim Kit for 22 inch Outdoor Refrigerators: A frame that hides rough cutout edges
The Summerset Trim Kit for 22 inch Outdoor Refrigerators is a stainless steel frame for a refrigerator cutout. It covers the raw edge of the cutout and the gap between the island and the appliance, so the unit looks built into the kitchen instead of dropped into a hole. It fits both 22 inch Summerset refrigerators, the standard and the Deluxe. It is built from 304 stainless steel, the grade that holds up best outdoors, and Summerset backs it with a lifetime warranty. It is the same steel as the fridge door, so the two age together.
This frame suits a cutout that came out a little rough, because it hides the gaps. Order it with the appliance so the installer can finish the opening in one visit. Framing a smaller fridge?

The Summerset Trim Kit for 22 inch Outdoor Refrigerators ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
Which refrigerators does the RTK-22 fit?
Both of Summerset’s 22-inch outdoor approved compact refrigerators – the standard RFR-22S and the Deluxe RFR-22D. There is no separate Deluxe trim; one kit frames either fridge, so you can pick the fridge on its merits and the trim question is already answered.
How does trim change the look of an island cutout?
It converts a rough opening into a deliberate frame. The RTK-22’s #304 stainless border hides cut cabinet edges and the shadow gap around the fridge face, pulling the appliance visually into the outdoor kitchen rather than leaving it looking dropped in afterward.
Is it the same steel as the fridge doors?
Yes – the RTK-22 is #304 stainless steel, the same grade as the doors on the 22-inch refrigerators it frames. Finish, sheen, and weathering all match over time, which is exactly what you want from the metal touching the appliance face.
What if my cutout came out slightly rough?
That is a trim kit’s favorite job. The RTK-22’s frame conceals imperfect edges and minor gaps around the opening so the finished face still looks precise. For questions about your specific opening dimensions, contact us before ordering and we will help verify fit.
Will weather wear it down?
The kit is weather-resistant and easy to clean by design. #304 stainless holds its finish through sun, rain, and temperature swings, so the RTK-22 keeps pace with the fridge behind it instead of becoming the first thing on the island to look tired.
Does it come with a warranty?
It does – the Gold Standard Lifetime Warranty, Summerset’s industry-leading protection designed to cover products for life, applies to the RTK-22. Lifetime coverage on a stainless frame effectively makes the finishing touch a one-time purchase.
Can I add the trim after the fridge is already installed?
The kit frames the cutout around the fridge face, so it is commonly used to finish an existing installation as well as a new build. If your 22-inch unit is already in place, look over your surround and reach out if you want help confirming the RTK-22 will dress it cleanly.
