Frigidaire 241856502 Refrigerator Door Plate Closer Oem

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 241856502 is a genuine OEM refrigerator door plate closer designed to regulate the final closing movement of the refrigerator door so it seats properly against the cabinet seal. This component mounts at the hinge-side section of the cabinet frame, aligning with the door travel path and engaging the closing hinge linkage during door movement. It assists controlled door return, maintains sealing alignment, and coordinates hinge motion to support stable refrigerator operation. Installation is typically performed by an appliance repair technician as part of a door hinge or closure system service.

This door plate closer is suited for residential refrigerator and freezer door applications where the original closing mechanism has worn, broken, or lost tension. It is a direct OEM replacement, meaning it matches the original component in mounting configuration and function without modification.
