Their shapes, materials and supports are designed for different positions and conditions. Similar width does not mean one can replace the other.
What the observation tells you
A refrigerator drawer placed in a freezer location can obstruct a door or outlet, while a freezer basket may not support the intended chilled-food arrangement. Forcing a fitting into a near match can damage the runners and make later fault symptoms confusing.
A useful next step
Keep parts identified during cleaning and refit them using the model diagram. If a component is missing or damaged, obtain the correct replacement rather than improvising a swap between compartments.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
