MONACO DYNASTY 2001 - NORCOLD REFRIG. DOOR FIX

[DUMBBOY]

First let me thank all, who helped me with my chairs. They are fixed. Next, I have a pretty simple fix for a broken Norcold refriderator door. On my door the long plastic strip, which holds the bottom hinge, had broken out at the bottom and the door fell out.

Tools needed:

1. Phillips screwdriver

2. Drill

3. Tin snips

The hinge connection went under the plastic and then two screws held the door in. I went to the hardware store and bought an inexpensive house roof vent (less than $10). I cut a strip, about ten inches long, off the metal vent that was thinner than the plastic strip, which was not broken off. I drilled two holes that the screws would go through, at the bottom of the strip. I then slid the strip under the remaining plastic strip on the door. I then put the door hinge part under the strip. I finished by tightening the screws and the door is better than the manufactured door.

This whole thing cost me less than $25 (including aviation tin snips that I purchased. This fix was a whole lot cheaper than a new door.
