A refrigerator having an improved assembly structure of doors, in which upper, lower and both side covers are simply assembled with frames of the doors without any gap between the covers and the frames. Holes are formed through the upper and lower covers, and protuberances inserted into the holes are formed on both side covers. The holes are formed at both side ends of the front surfaces of the upper and lower covers so as to have a designate depth and width, and the protuberances are formed at upper and lower ends of the front surfaces of both side surfaces so as to have a depth and width corresponding to those of the holes. A grip is formed integrally with one of both side covers, opposite to a hinge shaft of the door.
