Customer Questions and Answers for Hinge by Lg

The Hinge is an OEM part for LG dryers, designed to enable smooth door operation. This critical component ensures proper alignment and efficient sealing to prevent heat loss and noise. Continuous use may cause wear, affecting alignment, sealing, and dryer safety and efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad Hinge include:

• The dryer door hangs unevenly or won't close tightly.
• Increased difficulty in opening or closing the door.
• Squeaking, grinding, or other noises when the door is moved.
