Possible Causes

Refrigerator not level, Worn door hinges or cams, Overloaded door bins, Magnetic gasket weak or deformed

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Use caution when tilting or lifting doors; they are heavy.

  • Level cabinet: Adjust front leveling legs so the refrigerator leans slightly back, helping doors close by gravity.
  • Reduce load: Remove heavy items from door bins that may pull the door out of alignment.
  • Inspect hinges: Check top and bottom hinges for wear. Replace hinge cams or bushings if doors sag.
  • Gasket warm-up: Use a hair dryer on low to gently warm and reshape deformed gasket areas, then close the door to mold it into place.
