Refrigerator door not closing properly or swinging open by itself

Safety first: Ask for assistance when lifting or supporting doors to avoid injury.

Step 1 – Level the refrigerator:

• Adjust front leveling feet so the unit is stable and slightly tilted back.

Step 2 – Tighten hinges:

• Open the door and tighten all accessible hinge screws.
• Check top hinge cover and adjust door height if possible.

Step 3 – Reduce door load:

• Remove heavy bottles from the door bins to reduce stress on hinges.

Step 4 – Replace worn hinge parts:

• If the door still sags or binds, replace hinge bushings or the hinge assembly as required.
