Kenmore Freezer 253.16702100 (25316702100, 253 16702100) Parts

This hinge-side door stop helps limit door travel and protect the hinge assembly from over-rotation for a secure, consistent door movement. Replaces a worn or broken hinge-side stopper to restore proper door alignment and operation. What it does:

• Acts as the stop/breaker on the hinge side to prevent the door from swinging past its intended range
• Helps reduce stress and wear on the hinge and door seal caused by over-rotation
• Commonly replaced when the door catches, over-rotates, or the hinge feels loose
• Works with the hinge assembly to keep door movement smooth and predictable

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove the door or access hinge per your model's service instructions to reach the stopper
• Inspect adjacent hinge hardware and fasteners; replace any stripped or damaged parts
• Use proper hand tools and follow manufacturer torque and alignment guidance

The Gasket is an OEM part for Frigidaire freezers. It creates an airtight seal around the freezer door, preventing warm air from entering and cold air from escaping. This seal is vital for maintaining the correct internal temperature, ensuring the freezer operates efficiently and keeps food properly frozen. The gasket measures 19 1/2 inches wide by 28 inches tall. 

Causes of a bad gasket can include normal wear and tear, exposure to extreme temperatures, or damage from frequent opening and closing of the freezer door. Dirt and debris accumulation can also compromise the gasket's sealing ability.

Symptoms of a bad gasket include:

• Frost buildup inside the freezer
• The freezer running more frequently or continuously
• Higher than normal energy bills
• Warm spots inside the freezer
• The door not closing properly or a visible gap between the door and the frame

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
