Description

This door hinge secures and pivots a refrigerator door so it opens and closes smoothly, helping maintain a proper seal and consistent cooling. It's a direct-fit replacement when a bent or worn hinge prevents correct door alignment. What it does:

• Provides a secure pivot point so the refrigerator door swings freely and aligns correctly
• Restores proper door sealing to help prevent temperature loss and frost buildup
• Replaces worn, bent, or damaged hinges that cause noisy or uneven door movement
• Helps prevent excess stress on cabinet and gasket from misaligned doors

What's included: One door hinge (single hinge, as shown) Install notes:

• Remove power to the appliance before starting and work with an assistant if the door is heavy
• Support the door while removing/installing the hinge to avoid damage or injury
• Tighten mounting fasteners to the manufacturer's torque recommendations; inspect door alignment after installation
• If hinge attaches to molded plastic or painted surfaces, protect finishes during installation
