Dryer door sagging, not latching or hanging loose

A glass dryer door is heavier than a plain plastic one, and the hinge carries all of that weight each time the door swings open for loading. Leaning on the open door, draping washing over it or knocking it with a basket can crack the hinge or work its screws loose. You might notice the door dropping at the latch side, rubbing as it closes, failing to catch, or the dryer refusing to start because the door switch isn't being pressed. A hinge that has cracked right through can let the door fall off completely.

Swapping the door hinge

Unplug the dryer first. Support the door while you undo the hinge screws so the glass doesn't drop. Some models need the front panel or door trim removed to reach the hinge, so take photos as you go. Fit the new hinge, tighten the screws evenly and check the door lines up with the catch and closes without rubbing.
