A contractor installed the subject Viking refrigerator when my home was remodelled last year. The remodeller is nowhere to be found. The unit is not covered by the warranty either because it was a display unit. The refrigerator door does not close air-tight because the the door and the refrigerator body does not align properly. Do you know any practical solution to the problem? Could a hinge be the problem? If so, what can be done for that? For a practical solution, I will offer $30 fee. Thanks. |

Could it be that the refrigerator is not resting level, one corner sagging lower so the the front of the box is not plane, that is, skewed, so that the door does not fit closely? Such kitchen equipment have (usually have) one or more adjustable "feet", that you can screw to make them stand level. If that is the problem, and the fridge does not have such, you can shove a wedge or or whatever under the "odd" corner. If that is not the problem/solution, well, ... Good luck |

Hi, I should have thought of this before. If the fridge's door has a front to fit in with the style of adjacent cupboard doors, the problem could be the hinges, especially if the fridge door hangs on the front that has hinges. These can usually be adjusted. If this is the case, maybe my other suggestion could also apply, but an experience handyman (you?) or a carpenter should be able to help. Myoarin |
