Thank you for your inquiry, Jessica Hall!

From my understanding you are having an issue with your Frigidaire range door not closing. If the door is not making a proper seal, your range will not operate appropriately. It could be a potential issue with your hinges or door latch. I would recommend you reaching out to a professional technician. He or she will be able to come out and proper assess the range to assure that the proper parts are being replaced. I hope this information is beneficial. -Matt

SOURCE: Oven door just barely closes- light stays on

put a tea towel on both sides of the door [folded] down by the hinges then close door. gently push the door close try a few times with a little pressure.

SOURCE: Oven door hinge adjustment...?

Regarding the oven door not closing all the way and dropping suddernly to the floor, I called a local authorized service company and asked if there was a door spring (no). So the recommended solution is to have the hinges replaced. However, since the oven door didn't really hold its open position from the beginning, when it was brand new back in 01, I'm going to see if a new Viking oven has the same defect as ours. Then, it would seem like a good idea to take a chance on having it repaired.

Is replacing a set of oven door hinges something a person with reasonable mechanical aptitude can do?

SOURCE: Range door will not seal properly.

Place a hammer handle between the door and the frame at the hinges..
Push on the door, carefully.
This usually works to re-seat the door hinges.

SOURCE: Dacor oven door does not close completely

Place a hammer handle between the hinge and the door frame. Exert moderate pressure to close the door. It should spring back to normal position. Do both sides.

I'd look for a defective relay or shorted triac on the control panel circuit board. Either could cause this problem.

Re Neff B1451 oven door not sealing against oven body at top

If you take the hinges off, you can fit some washers between the hinges and the door to make it close it further. Probably not as good as new hinges, but cheaper. 2mm of washers will close a 5mm gap
