SERIOUSLY----THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO. Our door fell off two days ago and we didn't know what to do. My dad found your video here and today he and my husband fixed it just as you showed and we are back up and running again. You saved us SO MUCH MONEY. Thank you.

[@mechelleisaacs2162]

That was super helpful. I have the same exact problem. Not one RV repair guy will touch it. Thanks

[@camilorosales2742]

Thank you for the idea. I used a triangular 4 inch hinge. Glued the broken piece on. Then put the appropriate sized drill bit in. Placed the hinge on the bit and marked the cut. The three holes are offset on the hinge so it worked perfectly and lookse factory. Did the top hinge with the other side of the triangular hinge.

[@Clu883r]

It worked pretty good for us :) Thanks for checking out the video. Safe Travels

[@lmac36]

Excellent!! I opened our fridge door tonight and went -wth?? Great idea and I’m not about to buy a new door either because of a cheap piece of plastic! 👍

[@JonesN2Travel]

Glad you found the video. Hope it helps. I cant figure out why they would make that part plastic lol. Safe Travels

[@MileHighCampers]

Nice little hack, and saved some money, can't beat that!! 😎👍👍

[@DONNAB555]

Nicely explained. Thank you!

[@JonesN2Travel]

You are welcome. Glad to hear the video was helpful. Safe Travels

[@wynotwander7075]

Genius! I need to do that on a different model norcold but it should work well! Thanks for posting this!

[@JonesN2Travel]

Thank you so much. It should work. Ours is still holding up nearly a year later. Safe Travels 😁

[@DoMoreHappy]

Great job Aaron! Will have to start calling you the "RV MacGyver"! Great solution and fix. Tina you are too funny! Great job photobombing Aaron at the beginning of the video. Had to stop and rewind twice. 👍😎

[@JonesN2Travel]

That is awesome. I didn't even know that she did that until I started editing. Then I couldn't take it out LOL I was cracking up when I first noticed it. She claims she didn't know I was recording but whatever LOL Glad you liked it :)

[@BriggsontheRoad]

Great job!! Ya gotta love a handyman!

[@JonesN2Travel]

Thank you 😁👍

[@astraseeker]

Great solution Aaron. My vote goes for a "good thing" in respect to the repair videos. We are enjoying your videos a lot. Safe travels.

[@JonesN2Travel]

Thanks. Just glad I was able to fix it myself. Thanks for following along. 👍😁

[@daviscrt]

Nice repair job, good to know just in case it happens to me.

[@JonesN2Travel]

It was the last thing I expected to break but it did. Thanks for watching. 😁👍

[@waynehulette5806]

Awesome idea.

[@JonesN2Travel]

Thank you. Thanks for checking out the video :) Safe Travels

[@waynehulette5806]

@@JonesN2Travel I haven't tried it yet. It started raining. I let you know if this fixes my problem.

[@waynehulette5806]

You have any idea on why my generator stop running and won't start back up?

[@donaldcross1098]

Too much plastic in places that need strength. Nice fix, and like most things that need fixing, they turn into bigger jobs (hence the need for washers). 👍

[@JonesN2Travel]

Yeah it happens but luckily I had the washers lol thanks for watching

[@howielayzpype8876]

Great idea for a quick fix, especially if you're on the road. I, too, experienced same issue although my fridge is a right handed door. The only thing I did differently was purchase a small stainless steel plate at Ace Hardware for $1.00, and it is about half the thickness of a door hinge. So I didn't need to shim the posts with washers as you did. Worked great! One small item of concern is that the door now rocks a bit when opening/closing & I wonder whether or not the top post will eventually break as well since it is also made of plastic. Thoughts?

[@JonesN2Travel]

Hi Howie. I've never experienced the top hinge breaking but I suppose it could. I think the bottom hinges commonly fail because of all the door weight especially when the door is full of jars etc. Hope that helps. Thanks for checking out the videos and following along. Safe Travels

[@JChris139]

I love you

[@JonesN2Travel]

I hope you're saying that because the video helped LOL. Thanks for checking out the video. 😁👍

[@joefranco5397]

Nice repair, may have to call you MacGyver.

[@JonesN2Travel]

Thanks Joe. Not sure about MacGyver but sometimes it definitely takes creativity lol. Thanks for watching. 😀

[@janettapritchard6868]

Thanks for the information. I had the same problem with our fridge. Just got the door hinge stabilizer and just need to put it together. I notice you have put what appears to be bungy cord across the front of your top shelf. How has that worked for you, how far above the shelf is it mounted and how did you attach it to the side of the fridge? Thanks for the information.

[@JonesN2Travel]

Thank you. So glad you liked the video. That bar you see is actually part of the fridge. It slides in and out of the notch in the sidewall of the fridge. We also use tension rods, you can get the short ones at Walmart, to hold the items from sliding around inside the fridge. Simply adjust the tension rod to fit between the inside walls of the fridge. :) Safe Travels
