Customer Questions and Answers for Hinge Receiver (Refrigerator Door) by Ge

This hinge receiver secures the refrigerator door hinge to the cabinet frame, keeping the door aligned and closing smoothly. It replaces a worn or damaged receiver to restore proper door fit and operation. What it does:

• Secures the hinge pin to the cabinet frame so the door pivots correctly
• Restores proper door alignment and prevents sagging or uneven gaps
• Helps the door seat and seal fully to maintain internal temperature
• Stops clicking, rubbing or loose-feeling hinges caused by a broken receiver

• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before starting work to avoid electrical hazards.
• Support the door while removing hinge fasteners to prevent injury or damage.
• Use proper hardware and hand tools; do not overtighten fasteners which can strip mounting holes.
