How Do I Fix a Sagging Refrigerator Door?

Q: How do I fix a sagging refrigerator door?

A: A sagging door isn’t just an eyesore. If the gasket doesn’t seal properly, the refrigerator will work harder to keep a cold temperature, wasting energy, costing extra money and stressing the appliance. This can also lead to frost buildup in the freezer. The door can be adjusted by removing the hinge cap and loosening the hinge screws. Align the door with the top of the refrigerator and then re-tighten. If the unit has both an upper and lower door, adjust the lower door first using the middle hinge, and then adjust the top hinge afterward to realign the upper door.
