Description

This door hinge supports and pivots the appliance door so it opens smoothly and closes flush. Replacing a worn hinge helps restore proper alignment and sealing for consistent performance and safe operation. What it does:

• Provides the pivot point and support for the door
• Helps maintain door alignment and proper seal/latch engagement
• Controls opening/closing action (spring-tensioned on many models)
• Common symptoms: door won't close fully or pops open, door sags or rubs, drops too quickly, squeaks/binds when moving

What's included:

• 1 door hinge

Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and shut off gas, if applicable). Allow the unit to cool before servicing.
• Support the door; hinges may be under spring tension—use hinge locks/pins as designed and keep hands clear of the mechanism.
• Remove mounting screws, transfer any screws/brackets from the old hinge, and seat the new hinge fully in the receiver.
• Replacing both sides together often ensures even alignment and proper closure. Verify door operation and seal after reassembly.
