Dryer door is difficult to open or does not stay closed properly.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before adjusting hinges or replacing parts.

• Inspect hinges: Check for sagging or play in the door hinges. Tighten hinge screws and replace hinges if worn.
• Adjust latch alignment: Loosen the screws on the door catch or strike plate slightly, adjust position so the door closes smoothly, then retighten.
• Check door seal: Inspect the door gasket for deformation or damage that may prevent proper closure. Replace if necessary.
• Lubricate lightly: If hinges are stiff, apply a small amount of suitable lubricant to the hinge pins, avoiding contact with plastic parts.
