Frigidaire 218779901 Refrigerator Door Handle White

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 218779901 is an OEM replacement door handle for the fresh food compartment of select top-freezer refrigerators. It measures approximately 16 inches long and 1 inch wide and is finished in white. This handle ships as a handle-only part - the trim, mounting block, and mounting screws are not included. Reuse the original hardware from the existing installation or order those components separately for your model. Installation is straightforward and suited to appliance technicians or experienced service professionals familiar with refrigerator door hardware.

This handle is designed for the refrigerator compartment door, not the freezer section. It fits top-freezer style refrigerators in the Kenmore 253 series and Frigidaire FRX15 and WRTS23 series. The white finish is consistent with original factory color on these units, making it a direct cosmetic and functional match for worn or broken handles on those model lines.

Installation Notes

Unplug the refrigerator before beginning any door handle replacement. The original mounting hardware - trim, mounting block, and screws - must be reused or sourced separately, as they are not included with this part. Use the appropriate screwdriver for the existing fasteners and avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the door liner or handle mounting points. This repair is typically within scope for appliance technicians and experienced service pros.
