Hardwick Refrigerator freezer door or drawer not opening/closing properly

If your freezer door or drawer is sagging, rubbing, or not closing properly, the most likely causes are worn or bent hinges and damaged door stops that let the door go out of alignment. Start by inspecting the main door hinge for bends or broken mounting points, then check the door stop, bottom hinge, top hinge and center hinge for wear that will prevent the door from latching or allow the door to sag. In many cases a single bent hinge or a worn hinge pin is the culprit; in others you may need a replacement hinge kit to restore alignment and smooth operation. Left unaddressed a misaligned freezer door can cause warm spots, frost buildup and a fridge door not sealing correctly. If you need parts, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to see the exact replacement hinge, hinge kit or door stop that fits your refrigerator and get step by step parts guidance to complete the repair.
