Frigidaire 240327005 Refrigerator Upper Hinge Cover

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 240327005 is a genuine OEM upper hinge cover designed for refrigerators. It encloses the top hinge assembly at the upper corner of the refrigerator door frame, protecting the hinge mechanism and associated wiring from dust and physical exposure during door operation. The cover attaches via a snap-fit or clip connection, requiring no tools for installation in most cases. It also restores the finished appearance of the door frame after hinge service or door removal. At 0.50 pounds and compact in size, it ships as a direct replacement for the superseded part number 240327001.

This hinge cover fits select residential refrigerator models across multiple brands manufactured under the Electrolux family of appliances. It is a common service part ordered during door rehang procedures, full refrigerator door replacements, or cosmetic restoration work. Appliance technicians and experienced DIY repair persons typically install this cover as a final step after completing hinge or door alignment service.
