How to Repair Frigidaire Refrigerator Door Hinges

The door on a Frigidaire refrigerator is connected by two sets of hinges. If either of the sets of hinges are damaged, the door may not close properly. This can cause a decrease in temperature inside the unit that can lead to other problems with the refrigerator. Remove the broken or damaged hinges and replace them with new ones to repair your Frigidaire refrigerator and restore it to proper working condition.
