The Door Latch is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part ensures the dryer door stays securely closed during operation, activating the safety switch to allow the dryer to operate. The latch mechanism engages with the door strike to lock the door, preventing it from opening while the dryer is running, which is essential for both safety and proper functioning of the appliance. 

Causes for replacement can include normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or a misalignment that prevents the door from securely latching. 

Symptoms of a bad Door Latch include:

• The dryer door doesn't stay closed during cycles.
• Difficulty in starting the dryer due to the door not activating the safety switch.
• Visible wear or damage to the latch mechanism.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This complete outer door assembly restores the door for safe operation and consistent sealing. It replaces a damaged, dented, or non-closing door to help prevent heat/steam loss and improve appliance safety and appearance. What it does:

• Replaces the appliance's damaged or bent outer door to restore proper closure and sealing
• Helps stop steam, heat, or odors from escaping during operation
• Restores latch alignment and door stability for reliable opening and closing
• Improves appliance appearance by replacing scratched, dented, or warped door surfaces

• High-level swap: remove old door assembly and reinstall the replacement using original fasteners
• Unplug the appliance or shut off power before starting any repair to avoid electrical shock
• Handle glass and trim carefully—use gloves and eye protection to avoid cuts
• If the door has alignment, hinge, or latch issues after install, recheck hinge fasteners and alignment per OEM instructions

The Gasket Seal is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dryers. It is a crucial sealing component that lines the perimeter of the dryer door. The gasket seal helps create an effective air barrier when the door is properly closed and secured.  

Causes of a bad gasket seal can include wear and tear resulting in cracks along the surface, deformities preventing flush contact with the door border, or material deterioration compromising its sealing abilities.

Symptoms of a bad gasket seal include:

• Excessively long drying cycles as air escapes around the compromised seal    
• Visible lint or debris collections where the gasket meets the door framing
• Noticeable drafts or air gaps discernible across the door perimeter

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This hinge assembly secures and guides a refrigerator door so it opens and closes smoothly. It replaces a worn or damaged door hinge to restore proper alignment and reduce sagging or binding. What it does:

• Provides a mounting point for the refrigerator door and helps maintain correct door alignment
• Restores smooth opening/closing when original hinge is bent, worn, or broken
• Helps stop door sag, binding, gaps, and uneven sealing that can affect cooling
• Fits where original hinge hardware has failed or is missing

• High-level repair; basic hand tools typically required
• Disconnect power and empty/secure door contents before starting to prevent injury
• Keep original fasteners if reinstalling; replace any stripped or damaged screws

The Window Outer Door is an OEM part for GE dryers. It forms the exterior door panel that allows users to view drying progress through an observation window. This outer door protects the inner components and window during operation.

Causes of a bad window outer door can include cracks, dents, or other visible exterior damage due to normal use over time or accidental impact. Damage could also allow for excessive lint to collect near the door seals.

Symptoms of a bad window outer door include: 

• Difficulty closing or securing the dryer door fully 
• Leaks around the door seals during drying cycles
• Lint building up or collecting around the door opening
• Rattling or vibration noises from the door area
• Cracks or breaks visible on the outer door surface

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. 

This #8-32 x 1/2 machine screw is a direct-fit fastener used to secure panels and internal components in compatible appliances, restoring proper fit and eliminating loose or rattling parts. What it does:

• Secures panels, brackets, trim pieces and small internal assemblies where the factory screw is required
• Restores proper component alignment and prevents vibration-related noise
• Replaces missing or damaged mounting screws that allow parts to shift or come loose
• Matches standard #8-32 machine-thread fastener sizing commonly used in appliance assemblies

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before servicing to reduce shock risk
• Use the correct driver to avoid stripping the head; a magnetized screwdriver can help hold the screw
• Tighten until snug—do not overtighten to avoid damaging threads or panels
• Inspect mating threads and replace if damaged; replace with identical thread size and length
