# Maytag oven door and hinge repair

### A door out of true costs heat before it costs anything else

Which is why an oven that has started browning on one side is worth checking here before the element is suspected. Hinge wear, a spring that has lost tension, a gasket hardened at one corner, or a cabinet that has settled around the appliance — each lets heat out exactly where the cooking goes wrong. Hinges go in as a pair, because a new one beside a tired one pulls the door out of square within weeks, and the door is finally set flush with the run either side rather than merely square to the oven.

What this involves

A door out of true costs heat and evenness before anything else

Hinges go in as a pair, and the door is set to the cabinetry either side

On a double oven this is a two-person job and it is quoted as one

What has moved

Hinge wear, a spring that has lost its tension, or a cabinet that has settled around the appliance.

The seal along the whole run

A gasket hardened at one corner leaks heat exactly where the browning goes wrong.

Hinges as a pair

A new hinge beside a tired one pulls the door out of square within weeks.

Set against the run

Flush and even with the cabinetry, not just square to the appliance.

### The glass has fogged between the panes.

That is the door seal at the glass pack rather than the oven, and it is a door job. It does not affect cooking, and whether it is worth doing is usually a question about how much it annoys you.

### Is a double oven door a bigger job?

It is a two-person job on most cabinets, and that is quoted openly rather than discovered on the day. The doors are heavy enough that doing it alone risks the door, the housing and the person.
