Gaggenau Refrigerator Hinge Parts

The Door Closure Kit is an OEM replacement part  for Whirlpool refrigerators. The kit includes all the necessary parts to ensure your refrigerator door closes and seals properly - including two black and two white cams used for both the door and the hinge. 

Over time, door closure mechanisms can wear down from continual opening and closing motions. The cushions compress and arms lose tension. Without a tight seal, cold air can escape raising energy costs.

Symptoms of a bad door closure kit include:

• Doors not closing or sealing fully 
• Difficulty closing doors that don't latch securely
• Noticeable cool air loss around door edges
• Frost buildup indicating air leakage

It is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Door Closure is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is a critical component responsible for ensuring the proper sealing and closure of the refrigerator door, maintaining the desired temperature and preventing air leaks.

A faulty or worn door closure can lead to issues such as inadequate cooling, increased energy consumption, and potential food spoilage. Causes of a bad door closure may include normal wear and tear over time, physical damage from impact or mishandling, or compatibility issues with the specific refrigerator model.

Symptoms of a faulty Door Closure include:

• Air leaks around the door seal, causing cooling inefficiency
• Difficulty in opening or closing the refrigerator door
• The door not sealing tightly or feeling loose when closed
• Visible cracks, breaks, or damage to the door closure mechanism

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore refrigerator models.

The Door Bushing is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This part allows the smooth opening and closing of the refrigerator door by providing a smooth surface for the door hinge to pivot on. It helps ensure the door operates quietly and maintains proper alignment.

Causes of a bad door bushing can include regular wear and tear, exposure to weight stress from the door, or accidental damage.

Symptoms of a bad door bushing include:

• Door not opening or closing smoothly
• Squeaking or grinding noises when moving the door
• Door misalignment
• Increased difficulty in opening or closing the door

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This door hinge bushing restores smooth, stable movement at the refrigerator door pivot. It sleeves the hinge pin to reduce friction and wear, helping the door stay aligned so it closes cleanly and maintains a proper seal.

• Seats in the door hinge to guide the hinge pin and reduce friction
• Helps maintain door alignment and consistent gasket contact
• Replaces a worn, cracked, or missing bushing that can cause noise or binding
• Typical symptoms: squeaking or grinding at the hinge, door sagging/misalignment, door hard to open or close, or not closing flush

• Disconnect power; clear and support the door to prevent strain
• Remove hinge cover and fasteners; lift the door off the hinge pin as needed
• Remove the old bushing from the hinge area and press the new bushing fully into place, matching original orientation
• Reinstall hardware; adjust hinges/level as needed

This white door stop limits how far the door swings open, helping protect hinges and nearby surfaces. Replace a worn or missing stop to restore the intended opening range and smooth, controlled door movement.

• Limits door swing to prevent overextension and impact
• Helps protect door hinges and surrounding cabinetry
• Restores proper opening range when the original stop is cracked or missing
• Common signs: door opens too wide, door hits adjacent surfaces, visible broken/missing stop

• Disconnect power and clear items from the door before service
• Support the door to prevent strain on the hinges
• Remove hinge cover and fasteners as needed, swap the stop, and reassemble
• Open and close the door to verify proper swing and gasket seal

This nonmetal shim acts as a precise spacer/isolator within an appliance assembly to set correct clearance and alignment between parts. Replacing a worn or missing shim can reduce vibration, prevent rubbing, and help maintain smooth operation.

• Maintains proper spacing between mating parts to ensure correct alignment
• Helps reduce vibration, rattling, and premature wear from parts contacting
• Nonmetal construction provides electrical isolation and resists corrosion
• Common signs of a bad/missing shim: scraping noises, visible misalignment, or excess play at the joint

• Disconnect power and shut off water/gas supplies as applicable before servicing
• Match the new shim to the original thickness/position; some assemblies use multiple shims—reinstall in the same locations and order
• Clean mating surfaces and inspect related fasteners/brackets; replace any distorted hardware
• Tighten fasteners evenly to manufacturer specifications and verify smooth, interference-free movement after reassembly

This center hinge pin kit secures the middle hinge on compatible refrigerators so the door stays aligned and operates smoothly. It restores proper door pivoting and reduces sagging or uneven closing. What it does:

• Replaces worn or bent center hinge pin to restore correct door alignment
• Helps stop door sag, rubbing, or gaps that affect sealing
• Reduces noise and sticking when opening or closing the door
• Works with the center/middle hinge assembly to maintain smooth pivot action

• Follow the refrigerator's service manual for disassembly; some models require removing the door or shelves
• Support the door during removal/installation to prevent damage or personal injury
• Use proper tools and avoid over-tightening hinge fasteners

A small replacement closure shim that helps align and secure a closure/trim piece on select appliances, restoring proper fit and reducing rattles, rubbing, or gaps for quieter, more reliable operation. What it does:

• Positions and supports the closure/trim so panels and doors close evenly.
• Helps stop rubbing, misalignment, or minor gaps that can cause noise or poor sealing.
• Serves as a non-electrical spacer/aligner where the original shim has worn or broken.
• Useful when cosmetic trimming or closure pieces feel loose or shift during use.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair or accessing panels.
• Access location may require removing the related trim, panel, or door—refer to the appliance diagram or service manual.
• Handle small plastic parts carefully; align the shim before fastening to avoid breakage.
