ILVE oven door dropping or not closing? Check the hinges

Oven door hinges carry the full weight of the door and use a strong spring to hold it shut against the seal. Every opening flexes that spring, and the constant heat around the oven cavity doesn't help. A worn hinge lets the door drop open too fast, sit crooked, or leave a gap at the top where heat escapes. You may notice the door slamming down, the seal not touching evenly, or the front of the oven running hotter than usual. A broken spring or bent arm usually means the hinge needs replacing.

Swapping an ILVE oven hinge

Make sure the oven is off and completely cool. Most oven doors lift off once the hinge clips are flipped back with the door fully open, then the door is closed part way and lifted out. Keep the old hinge beside you to compare with the new one. Hinges hold a lot of spring tension, so keep fingers clear of the arm. Refit the door and check it closes evenly.

Questions about this part

Do I need to replace both hinges?

Not always. If only one hinge is damaged, replacing that one will usually fix the problem. When both hinges are the same age and the door sags, changing them together gives a more even close. Check whether your left and right hinges share the same number before ordering two.
