An inner liner has a peripheral flange in registry with t he outer door shell flange, a central wall and a pair of vertical, inwardly projecting sidewalls connecting the central wall to the liner flange. Each sidewall includes a scallop in the fo rm of an inwardly opening notch at a select aligned longitudinal position of the inner liner. The central wall includes a transverse inwardly opening recess groove extending between the sidewalls at the select longitudinal position to provide an expansion joint to prevent bowing when an insulation cures in the space between the liner and the shell and when the refrigerator is in operation, thus cooling the door.
