4055919049 Genuine Oven Door Handle, Silver, for Chef Ovens and Cookers, Chef 9615 Reference, Part Number A05973708

Genuine part 4055919049 is a silver door handle for Chef ovens, listed in our records against the Chef 9615 and also numbered A05973708. A broken handle makes the oven door awkward and unsafe to open when hot, so it's worth replacing rather than gripping the door edge with a tea towel. Check that your oven's model includes 9615, or match A05973708 to a number on your old handle, before ordering.

Broken Chef oven door handle? Why a proper replacement matters

The oven door handle takes a lot of heat and a lot of pulling. Each time the oven runs, warm air rises past it, and over the years the fixings loosen, the end mounts crack or the handle bends away from the door. A loose handle can let go while you're opening the door with a heavy dish inside, which is how burns happen. A handle made for the door lines up with the original screw holes and sits at the right distance from the hot glass, so it stays comfortable to hold.

Fitting the oven handle

Make sure the oven is switched off and completely cool. On many ovens the handle screws are reached from inside the door, which may mean removing the door and separating the outer glass, so take photos as you go. Others fix through the top edge of the door. Refit any spacers in the same positions, tighten the screws firmly without forcing them, and check the door closes and seals properly.
