Refrigerator Metal Top Hinge, Right Side
Dimensions: 5 inches by 3.5 inches. This item is available as a separate purchase. Replacement may be necessary if the door experiences difficulty during operation.
This top hinge, an authentic OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) component, is crafted for select Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator models. Located at the top of the refrigerator door, it ensures smooth and efficient door movements.
Indicators that the top hinge requires replacement include:
- Misalignment or improper seating of the refrigerator door against the frame.
- Increased difficulty when maneuvering the door.
- Audible noises or squeaks emanating from the hinge area.
The hinge typically deteriorates due to wear from regular usage, with frequent door operation accelerating this process.
This authentic Whirlpool part is also compatible with models from KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Maytag, and certain Kenmore side-by-side refrigerators, offering wide-ranging suitability.
