ABSTRACT:
A clear plastic, PLEXIGLAS.RTM. or other suitable, clear, "unbreakable" lens may be either hingedly opened from and closed to or otherwise removed from and replaced in laminar relationship with respect to a refrigerator/freezer door. Adhesive, magnetic or other suitable fastening material are used to fix display items to the lens or door. When the lens closes over the items a visually pleasing frame protects the displayed items and allows for easy removal and substitution. In one embodiment, the lens is hinged to one side of a freezer door on an upright, top-freezer refrigerator. In a second embodiment, lenses are hinged to the outside edges and latched on the inside edges of both doors of an upright, side-by-side double-door refrigerator/freezer combination. In either embodiment, the lens can be inset into the door so as to provide surfaces on the same planes as those of the remainder of the door. In a third and aftermarket embodiment, a sheet of relatively rigid material, such as plastic, aluminum or sheet metal, is attached to an existing refrigerator/freezer door by means of two-sided tape, magnets or other suitable fastening material. A sheet of magnetic material may be used. The lens is mounted to the sheet and pictures and other printed matter are mounted on the sheet instead of being mounted directly on the refrigerator/freezer door.
