Symptoms of a bad hinge screw include:

• Loose or sagging door that does not close or seal properly
• Increased vibration or noise from the hinge area

This replacement refrigerator door gasket restores a tight seal between the door and cabinet to help maintain proper temperature and reduce frost and moisture. Use it when the existing seal is torn, warped, or not sealing evenly.

• Creates an airtight barrier around the door to limit warm air infiltration and cold air loss
• Helps minimize frost/ice buildup and condensation at the door opening
• Replaces cracked, shrunken, or deformed gaskets that leave gaps or air leaks
• Common symptoms include visible tears, moisture on or around the seal, temperature fluctuations, or a door that won't seal fully

• Unplug the refrigerator; allow the new gasket to warm to room temperature. Gentle warming (hot water bath or low heat) can help relax kinks.
• Clean the door's sealing surface. Remove the old gasket carefully to avoid damaging any retaining channel.
• Fit corners first, then work along the sides for an even, uniform seal. Design and attachment method vary by model.
• Close the door and check for even contact (dollar-bill test). Readjust gasket seating or door alignment as needed.

Size: 1/4 inch hex head, 10-12 x 1/2 inch.

This door shelf trim is the front bar that snaps onto a refrigerator's door bin to keep bottles and containers secure. Replace a cracked or missing retainer to restore safe, organized storage on the door.

• Attaches to the door shelf/bin to hold items in place during door movement
• Restores function when the original bar is cracked, broken, warped, or missing
• Helps prevent items from sliding or falling from the door
• Common symptoms: loose or broken trim, bar won't stay attached, door shelf won't hold items properly

• Disconnect power and remove items from the affected shelf before service
• Release the old bar (squeeze tabs or slide ends free), align, and snap the new trim onto the door shelf/end caps
• Allow cold plastic to warm to room temperature to reduce risk of cracking
• Verify secure engagement before reloading the shelf

This screw anchor is a small plastic fastener that secures panels and trim on appliances, preventing screws from stripping or pulling out. It provides a reliable anchor point for screws where threaded material is thin or absent. What it does:

• Creates a secure mounting point for screws in sheet metal, plastic or thin panels
• Helps prevent screw looseness, stripping, and parts that shift or rattle
• Commonly used to hold trim, panels, or interior components in place
• Works with compatible screws to distribute load and stabilize attachments

• Use the correct screw size and length; anchors are made for specific screw diameters—do not force oversize screws
• Align anchor in the prepared hole before driving the screw to avoid cracking the anchor or surrounding material
• Hand-start screws until seated, then tighten gradually—do not overtighten to prevent stripping or damage
• Disconnect power and follow appliance safety procedures before accessing internal panels
