The Hinge-Door is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool gas ranges. It is the stainless steel door hinge assembly that allows smooth, controlled movement of the oven door. The hinges support the weight of the door and maintain proper alignment between the door and oven cavity.
Symptoms of bad door hinges include:
- Loose, wobbly, or sagging door that does not stay firmly in place
- Difficulty in fully opening or closing the door
- Excessive noise or vibration from the hinges
- Pinholes, cracks, or other damage to the hinge surface
Causes of failure are typically wear over the heavy usage life of a range. Hinges may also become misaligned or damaged by accidental impact.
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
