Description
Complete the polished look and protective finish of your refrigerator’s lower front with the genuine OEM kickplate/toe-grille part 240324411 from Frigidaire. This component replaces the lower front grille that covers the compressor area, helps protect components from dust and debris, and contributes to the appliance’s appearance. Because model years, trim colors, mounting tab spacings and finishes vary, please check with your maintenance technician to confirm that part number 240324411 matches your appliance’s full model number (including suffix) and that the kickplate is the correct part needing replacement. partstown.com+3frigidaireapplianceparts.com+3partselect.com+3
Features & Benefits
-
OEM-specified part: Engineered by Frigidaire for correct fit and quality in compatible models. partselect.com+1
-
Durable lower grille: Covers the base of the refrigerator cabinet, guarding internal components (like the compressor housing) from dust, debris and impact, while maintaining airflow clearance.
-
Clean aesthetic finish: Restores the factory look—important for visible front-toe area that often gets scuffed or damaged.
-
Cost-effective repair: Replacing the kickplate is far more affordable than repair or replacement of larger front-panel assemblies or liners.
-
Straightforward installation: Once compatibility is confirmed, the old panel is removed and the new one snapped or screwed into place using the existing mounting tabs.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
The lower front grille is cracked, broken, missing or scratched up—visibly degrading the appearance of the refrigerator.
-
You notice bottom airflow is partly blocked, or debris/dust is accumulating behind a damaged grille.
-
The panel doesn’t latch or fit flush any more — perhaps due to bending or broken mounting tabs.
-
The factory kickplate shows significant cosmetic wear or corrosion, reducing the finished appearance of the appliance.
If you observe any of these symptoms, ask your maintenance technician to verify that the kickplate (240324411) is indeed the correct replacement part for your model and that the mounting system is intact.

Replacing the kickplate restores the panel appearance and cover functionality—but if the mounting tabs, cabinet liner or bottom frame are bent or damaged, you may still see mis-fit or loose attachment. Technician inspection is recommended.

Typical installation: Unplug the refrigerator or turn off power for safety, open doors, remove lower drawer or panel if present, unscrew or unclip the old grille panel, align the new panel 240324411 with the mounting tabs, snap or screw it into place, check the fit and alignment, then restore power.
