Also, you'll need shims, a drill or a jigsaw, to drill holes where necessary.

Be sure that the space you're putting your fridge in has enough ventilation. This allows cool air to circulate properly and maintain a consistent temperature throughout your cabinet.

If you are using a freestanding wine chiller cooler, it is important to remember that the vent will be located at the back. It will also require enough space to work properly. If the vent is blocked, it will have to do twice as hard to control its internal temperature, and will use more energy than it should.
