4055598967 Genuine Door Dairy Compartment Kit RH/LH for Electrolux Group Fridges, Butter and Cheese Door Bin, Alt 1441786K

Genuine Electrolux kit 4055598967 replaces the dairy compartment on the inside of a fridge door, the covered section where butter and cheese are kept. It also goes by the older number 1441786K and is described as RH/LH. Lids and hinges on dairy compartments take a lot of opening and closing, so they are often the first door part to crack. There is no model list on file for this kit, so compare it with your existing compartment first.

Replacing a broken fridge dairy compartment

The dairy compartment keeps soft foods slightly apart from the rest of the door storage, and its flap stops them drying out. Cracked lids, snapped hinge pins and broken mounting tabs are the usual problems, along with a compartment that drops out of the door when it is bumped. A broken dairy section won't stop your fridge cooling, but a lid that no longer closes leaves food exposed. Replacing it is simpler than trying to glue cracked plastic, which rarely holds in the cold.

Fitting the dairy kit

Empty the door shelves first so nothing falls out while you work. Most door compartments lift up and out of moulded rails, but look at how the old one is held before forcing anything. Check the new kit against the old part for width and mounting style, then clip it into the same position and open and close the lid a few times.
