4055557773 Genuine Fridge Door Closure Base for Electrolux Group Fridges and Fridge Freezers, Self Closing Door Part

Part 4055557773 is a genuine Electrolux door closure base, listed with Electrolux group fridge spares. A door closure helps the fridge door pull itself shut over the last part of its swing, and this is the base section of that set up. Electrolux sells fridges under several badges, including Westinghouse and Kelvinator, but we hold no model list for this part. Check the number on your old part, or send us your model, before you order 4055557773.

What a fridge door closure does and when to replace it

Nobody shuts a fridge door perfectly every time, so many fridges use a closure at the bottom of the door to help it swing closed and press firmly against the seal. When the base of that closure cracks, wears or slips out of place, the door may stop short, drift open again, or close unevenly. A door left slightly ajar lets warm air in, so you may notice frost building up, condensation around the opening, food not staying cold, or the compressor running much longer than usual.

Changing the door closure base

Switch the fridge off at the wall and empty the door shelves first, as the door may need lifting off its lower hinge. Have someone hold the door steady while you work. Photograph how the old closure base sits and which way it faces before taking it out. Fit the new base the same way, rehang the door, then check it swings shut and seals evenly all round.

Questions about this part

Where is the model number on my fridge?

Most Electrolux group fridges carry a rating label inside the fresh food section, usually on a side wall near the crisper or under a shelf. It shows the model and a product number. Send both through our parts enquiry form and we can check whether 4055557773 suits your fridge.
