Dryer Door Won’t Close – Westminster
If your dryer door won’t close or stay shut, the machine won’t start-and your laundry gets stuck. This is a common issue for homeowners in Westminster, and the good news is that it’s usually easy to fix. At Tonny’s Appliance Repair, we resolve dryer door issues fast so you can get back to your day.
Why Your Dryer Door Won’t Close
Dryers are designed with built-in safety features that prevent operation when the door isn’t fully latched. If your door isn’t clicking or keeps popping open, the problem is likely mechanical.
Most common causes:
- Broken door latch or catch
- Worn door strike
- Damaged door hinge
- Warped or misaligned door
- Loose screws or bent frame
- Foreign objects stuck in the latch area
- Worn door gasket or rubber seal
Signs Your Dryer Door Has and Issue
- You need to hold the door closed for the dryer to start
- Door doesn’t click into place
