Question:

How can I fix the door hinges noise on my refrigerator?

Answer:

Check for loose screws/bolts: If you recently removed the doors, the hinge bolts or hinge cover screws might be loose. Tighten them if needed.

Contact installer (if applicable): If your fridge was professionally installed and the doors had to be removed for installation, reach out to the installer for assistance.

Ensure fridge is level: Make sure your refrigerator is standing evenly on its surface.

Allow time for new fridges: If your fridge is brand new, the door harnesses may not be properly seated yet. Give it a week for the harness to settle, and the noise should disappear.

Use silicone spray: For existing fridges with new noise, spray the hinges with a food grade silicone spray (available at home improvement stores).

Be cautious with WD-40: Although WD-40 can also work, avoid contact with any food or beverages inside the refrigerator.

Seek service: If none of these solutions work, your refrigerator will require professional service.

Terms:

Hinge bolts: Bolts that attach the door hinges to the fridge.

Hinge cover screws: Screws that secure the hinge covers.

Food grade silicone spray: A safe lubricant for appliances that comes in contact with food.

WD-40: A multipurpose solvent and lubricant (use with caution around food).
