I wouldn't count on moving the door, not sure it is possible, will
have extra holes, and I wouldn't try it. Just look at it as a mark of
pride that you have such a big refrigerator.
And why shouldn't the doors not be higer anyhow. Istn't decorative
trim above a doorway or window often higher than elsewhere?
Maybe next fridge will be smaller and you'll want to move the cabinets
and the doors back.
