The Door Latch Bracket is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool built-in microwaves. It is a rigid metal component that securely holds the door latch mechanism in proper position when closed. This is the microwave door latch bracket behind the door release button.

Causes of a bad door latch bracket typically involve fatigue from years of repeated use. Impacts, warping from excessive heat exposure, or stresses from heavy pan loads may weaken or deform connecting surfaces over time as well.

Symptoms of a compromised bracket include:

• Misalignment causing difficulty latching or fully closing the door
• Cracking or looseness allowing excessive play of latch components  
• Recurring problems with the door sealing tightly or staying shut securely
• Gaps that allow microwaves to escape from the cooking cavity

This OEM Whirlpool replacement part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and some Kenmore built-in microwave models.
