Introduction
If you need to install a new door, access the exterior hinge assembly with this guide. Since the door provides the essential seal that keeps cold air contained, replacing it can resolve issues like poor cooling, frost buildup, or a damaged gasket on your mini fridge.
The process is simple, but handle the hinges and alignment points carefully to ensure a proper seal and smooth operation once the new door is in place.
Before you begin, unplug the refrigerator.
