How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Support the door when adjusting hinges to avoid injury or damage.
- Check for obstructions: Ensure shelves and bottles are not protruding and contacting the door.
- Inspect hinges: Tighten loose hinge screws and adjust the door position so it is square with the cabinet.
- Test gasket: Close the door on a strip of paper at several points; if it pulls out easily, adjust hinges or replace the gasket.
- Level cabinet: A tilted cabinet can cause the door to swing open; adjust feet so the unit leans slightly back.
