Possible Causes

Cabinet not level, Door hinges loose or bent, Overloaded door shelves, Deformed door gasket

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No electrical work is required.

Steps:

  • Level the freezer: Adjust the front feet so the cabinet leans slightly backward, helping the door close by itself.
  • Check hinges: Tighten hinge screws and ensure the door is correctly aligned with the cabinet.
  • Reduce door load: Remove heavy items from the door shelves that may twist the door.
  • Gasket reshaping: Warm the gasket gently with a hair dryer and reshape it to improve sealing. Replace the gasket if it remains deformed.
