Possible Causes

Misaligned hinges, Sagging door due to heavy items, Warped or damaged door gasket, Leveling feet not adjusted correctly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the refrigerator is stable before adjusting hinges or feet.

Step-by-step:

  • Level the unit: Adjust the front leveling feet so the refrigerator leans slightly back. This helps doors close by gravity.
  • Inspect gasket: Check for tears, hard spots, or deformation. Warm the gasket gently with a hair dryer and reshape if slightly warped.
  • Hinge adjustment: On many Liebherr models, the top hinge can be adjusted. Loosen the screws slightly, reposition the door for proper alignment, and retighten.
  • Reduce door load: Remove heavy bottles from the door shelves to reduce sagging.
