How to Install a Whirlpool Duet Dryer Door Frame Ring

The door frame ring is a piece of trim attached to the front of your Whirlpool Duet dryer. The door frame ring surrounds the door opening and is removed to provide full access to the drum, usually before it is removed from the appliance for repair. Once you have finished working on the dryer, you need to re-install the door frame ring before you can begin attaching the other panels and trim.
