About this sound

CLOSE THE FRIDGE, YOU'RE LETTING THE COLD OUT!

That's a fridge door opening and shutting. It's about six and a half seconds, with the seal pulling open, a little handling, then the door thumping closed. It's low, soft and pretty quiet. Good for a midnight snack scene.

Editing notes

Measured from this file.

  • There's 0.45 s of quiet before the sound starts. Trim that off if it has to land right on a cut, a hit or a button press.
  • It gets loudest 3.5 s after it starts (3.95 s into the file). Line that part up with the action.
  • It peaks at +0.4 dBTP, which is over full scale. Turn it down about 2 dB or put a limiter on it before you push it up in a mix.
  • It's −29.6 LUFS, about 11 dB quieter than the typical sound here (−18.2 LUFS). So you'll probably need to turn it up when you swap it in.
