Possible Causes
Bent or worn door hinges, Loose hinge screws, Deformed door gasket, Warped door frame from impact or overheating
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the oven is cool before adjusting the door.
- Inspect hinges: Open the door fully and check the hinge arms and mounting points for bending or looseness. Tighten any loose screws.
- Check gasket: Examine the door gasket for flattened sections or tears. Replace if it does not spring back when pressed.
- Door removal: Many Bertazzoni doors can be removed by opening to the broil stop position and lifting off the hinges. Remove the door and inspect hinge receivers in the oven frame for damage.
- Replace hinges: If hinges are worn or bent, replace them as a pair to ensure even closing.
Note: Do not slam the oven door; this accelerates hinge wear.
