931331491 Genuine Oven Door Hinge for Smeg Ovens, Replacement Smeg Hinge for a Door That Falls Open or Sits Crooked

Smeg hinge 931331491 is a genuine replacement from Smeg's oven door hinge range. Smeg makes many hinge versions that look alike but differ in spring strength, arm length and fixing points, so the part number is the only safe way to match one. Look for the number stamped or labelled on your old hinge, or check the parts list for your oven model, and make sure it reads 931331491.

Smeg oven door falling open or sitting crooked

Oven hinges take the load of a heavy glass door thousands of times. The spring inside each hinge balances the door so it stays put when partly open and closes firmly against the seal. As springs fatigue or the hinge arm bends, the door may crash down when opened, refuse to stay closed, sit lower on one side or leave a gap at the top. Heat then escapes past the seal and the oven struggles to hold temperature. A hinge that clicks, binds or feels gritty when the door moves is also wearing out.

Fitting tips for Smeg oven hinges

Isolate the oven and let it cool. Open the door fully, flip the locking levers on both hinges, then close the door partway and lift it up and out. Rest it on a towel. Note how the old hinge is fitted, release its screws and slide it out. Fit the new hinge, refit the door and check it opens smoothly and closes evenly. Replacing hinges in pairs keeps the door balanced.
