Haier Refrigerator door not opening/closing properly

If your Haier refrigerator door is not closing properly or the fridge door seems to stick or not seal, start with the gasket. A twisted, dirty, or torn door gasket is the most common reason a refrigerator door will not close or a fridge door not sealing, and sometimes warming the gasket with a hair dryer will smooth kinks enough to restore the seal. Next likely issues are the door catch or door cam, which guides the door shut and will let the door pop back open if worn or broken. After that check the bottom and top hinges for bends or wear that can make the door sag, and on French door models inspect the door support and mullion area so the doors meet squarely. If multiple hinge components are damaged you may need a hinge kit to realign the door. Enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to see the exact replacement gasket, door catch, hinge, or support part that fits your refrigerator.
