Integrated fridge-freezer furniture can affect closure

An outer furniture door can catch before the appliance door seals. This can imitate a faulty rubber seal or contribute to moisture problems.

Show the whole panel

Include adjacent cabinet lines and say whether fitting or flooring work preceded the change. Avoid removing the panel to create a photograph.

Agree access before work

The model and furniture arrangement help establish suitable inspection. Cabinet adjustment and an internal appliance fault are different questions; no repair outcome should be assumed from a close-up gap alone.

A useful distinction

A furniture hinge can transfer force to the appliance door differently depending on the mounting arrangement. Whole-installation evidence helps an engineer avoid recommending a seal for a problem that begins in the fitted panel.
