Replacing a hinge
The secret recipe for a functioning refrigerator, just like a freezer, is that it is completely sealed to keep the cold inside. In addition to an intact seal, this also requires a fully closed refrigerator door. In addition to the cold escaping and the associated damage to the appliance and contents, condensation can form and, in the worst case, even leak out of the refrigerator. In this case, it is essential to replace the hinge.
With many refrigerator or freezer models, it is possible to replace the hinge yourself. It is generally recommended that all hinges are replaced at the same time. It is not uncommon for another hinge to cause problems soon after a defective hinge. Caring for the hinges with a recommended product, such as WD-40, can prevent a defect and prevent possible squeaking.
