This door hinge restores smooth, controlled opening and a tight seal on the oven door. It supports the door's weight with spring tension so the door closes fully and stays positioned without slamming or sagging.

  • Provides the spring-loaded pivot that controls oven door movement
  • Helps ensure the door closes flush for a proper seal and heat retention
  • Common symptoms: door won't close fully, drops or slams, won't stay at a set angle
  • Reduces squeaks/binding and corrects uneven gaps around the door
What's included: One door hinge. Install notes:
  • Disconnect power to the range or wall oven; shut off gas supply if applicable
  • Remove and support the door to access hinges
  • Springs are under high tension—use caution and proper locking method; wear gloves and eye protection
  • After installation, verify door alignment and gasket contact all around
