Customer Questions and Answers for Door Strike (Door Latch Strike), Single by Ge

Door strike catches the door latch to keep the appliance door closed, restoring secure closure and proper operation. Replaces a worn or broken strike to help prevent the door from popping open and losing temperature control. What it does:

• Catches and holds the door latch so the door stays closed during normal use — common repair for doors that won't latch reliably
• Restores consistent door sealing to help reduce drafts and temperature loss
• Replaces the original strike at the latch assembly and mounting points
• Helps prevent issues caused by a loose or damaged strike, such as frequent door openings or poor sealing

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off the breaker) before servicing the appliance
• Basic hand tools (screwdriver) are typically required; access may require removing inner door trim or a small access panel
• Handle the door and strike carefully; align the latch before tightening screws and avoid overtightening
