Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Is your mini fridge door not working properly? Are you having trouble keeping the door closed and the contents cold? You may want to inspect the quality of the hinges connecting your door to the fridge.
This guide is designed to assist you in replacing your mini fridge hinges. Before replacing your hinges verify that there are not any underlying problems with your door seal and mechanical components. Should these remain functional but the hinges are not you can proceed to follow this guide.
These hinges can become damaged, rusted, or worn over time resulting in poor functionality of the fridge door. This repair can be completed by one person but an assistant is helpful.
