Fridge door sagging or not closing? Signs of a bad bottom hinge

The lower hinge carries most of the door's weight, and on a side by side fridge that includes everything stacked in the door shelves. When the hinge bends, its pin wears or the bracket cracks, the door drops out of line. You'll notice the doors sitting at different heights, the seal not meeting the cabinet, a door that swings open on its own, or frost and condensation building up inside. Heavy door loads and kids swinging on the door are common causes.

Changing the bottom hinge

Switch the fridge off at the wall and empty the door shelves to take weight off. Remove the toe kick to reach the hinge, and support the door with a helper or a block while you undo the bracket. Fit the new hinge, transfer or replace the adjustable roller, then adjust until both doors line up and the seals close evenly all round.
