Possible Causes

Misaligned door hinges, Warped door gasket, Shelves or bottles interfering with door

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Have someone help support the door if you remove hinge screws.

Steps:

  • Check for obstructions: Ensure shelves and bottles are not protruding and contacting the door.
  • Inspect gasket: Look for twisted or deformed sections. Warm the gasket gently with a hair dryer and reshape it by hand to improve sealing.
  • Adjust hinges: Loosen hinge screws slightly and adjust the door position so it is square with the cabinet, then retighten.
  • Replace parts if needed: If the gasket is torn or the hinge is bent, replace the door gasket or door hinge assembly as appropriate.
