Maybe that is putting pressure on it

no we dont close the door

Mick we used to leave our freezer compartment door open and then the fridge door open in our caravan when we had it.  The caravan lasted 8 years and we never replacedd the hinges on any of it.  Mind you the freezer compartment door opened from left to right, not top to bottom that perhaps yours does.

yes pulls down strange it must be because we wedge it open

 When we used to have one of those type fridges ,when not in used I used to keep it open with a small bit of sponge , so it was just opened enough to vent it ,but if the fridge door was accidentally closed  it didnt  hit the flap

great minds think alike bazza on to demetic to day
