Possible Causes

Safety first: Ensure the oven is cool before working on the door.

Inspect hinges:
- Open the door and check hinges for bending or play.
- On many Frigidaire Professional models, the door can be removed by opening to the broil stop and lifting off the hinges.
Check latch alignment:
- Inspect the latch on the oven frame and the strike on the door.
- Adjust the strike plate slightly if misaligned.
Replace hinges:
- If the door drops or does not spring closed, replace both oven door hinges as a set.
