The access panel includes, a substantially rigid middle portion having a top edge and a bottom edge, a flexible top portion attached along at least a portion of the top edge of the substantially rigid middle portion for positioning adjacent the lower frontal section of the domestic appliance, and a flexible bottom portion attached along at least a portion of the bottom edge of the substantially rigid middle portion for positioning adjacent the surface. A leveling bracket is disposed adjacent the lower frontal section of the domestic appliance. The leveling bracket has a slot for receiving at least one tab element of the access panel for retaining the access panel across the lower frontal section of the domestic appliance, the tab element being moveable within the slot between a first position and a second position for adjusting the height of the flexible bottom portion in relation to the surface.
