Refrigerator Shelf Weight Limitations

Refrigerator with cantilever shelves (have brackets that fit in rear wall supports) are tested for 35 pounds per square foot.

 
  • These shelves should not exceed 50 pounds total weight for full width shelves and 25 pounds for half width shelves.
  • These same limitations hold true for glass and plastic vegetable bin covers.

 

 

An example of the weight of an average refrigerator item would be a gallon container. It weighs 8 pounds, and a full width shelf can hold 6 of them. A quart container weighs 2 pounds, and a full width shelf can hold 24. The door shelves have no specific limitations.

 

 

Note:  The above information also applies to non-cantilever shelves.
