Frigidaire Refrigerator door not opening/closing properly
If your refrigerator door is not closing or the fridge door not sealing, start by checking the door gasket. A twisted, kinked, or worn gasket is the single most common cause; you can try smoothing minor kinks with a hair dryer but replace the gasket if it is torn or flattened. Next likely is a worn door catch or door cam that fails to pull the door fully closed, followed by bent or damaged hinges. A bad bottom hinge often lets the door sag, and a damaged top hinge or hinge kit can cause uneven closing as well. On French door models check the door support and the mullion heater flap; if the support is misaligned the mullion may not seal and the doors will not close tightly. Inspect each part for visible wear, test the door operation after adjusting or cleaning, and replace any damaged components.

The door cam helps the door to close. If the door cam is worn or broken the door may not close properly. Inspect the door cam for damage, and replace it if needed.
A refrigerator door support is often used on French Door models to flip a mullion heater flap to seal the gap between the doors. If the door support is damaged or misaligned, the mullion heater flap may not be positioned appropriately for the door or doors to close completely. Inspect the support for damage and replace if necessary.
