Dryer door is hard to open or feels stuck after a cycle.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before adjusting the door or latch.

• Inspect the door gasket: Look for areas where the gasket is pinched or melted. Replace the gasket if deformed.
• Check latch alignment: Ensure the door strike lines up with the catch. Adjust hinges or strike position as needed.
• Lubricate lightly (if metal latch): If the latch is metal-on-metal, a tiny amount of dry lubricant can reduce sticking. Do not use grease that can attract lint.
