This backguard kit replaces the upper rear panel and trim on compatible ranges to restore a clean appearance and protect wall and controls from spills and heat. It's a direct-fit exterior repair for damaged, bent, or corroded backguards. What it does:
- Replaces the upper rear backguard panel and trim to restore the range's finished rear appearance
- Protects the control area and wall from splashes, grease, and heat exposure
- Helps stop drafts and gaps behind the range that can collect debris
- Addresses visible damage like dents, rust, or cracked trim
What's included: One backguard kit — main backguard panel and accompanying trim components as supplied with the kit. Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the range (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting work.
- Installation may require lifting and aligning the panel; use a second person for safety on larger ranges.
- Use common hand tools; keep fasteners and mounting brackets from the old assembly if reusable.
- Follow the appliance manufacturer's service instructions for model-specific steps and torque values.
