Description
Ensure your refrigerator doors align and function smoothly with this genuine OEM center door hinge bracket, part number 240313803, from Frigidaire (Electrolux-built models). This bracket mounts between the cabinet and the door (typically in side-by-side or French-door refrigerators), providing a stable pivot point so the door opens, closes and seals properly. Because hinge bracket geometry, door style and mounting configurations vary by model year and brand, please check with your maintenance technician to confirm that 240313803 is the correct part for your appliance’s full model number (including suffix) before ordering. frigidaireapplianceparts.com+1
Features & Benefits
-
OEM-specified bracket: Designed to match Frigidaire’s original mounting hole locations, material strength and finish for proper fit and durability. frigidaireapplianceparts.com+1
-
Stable door pivot support: Helps prevent door sagging, misalignment, binding or improper closing—restoring the smooth open/close operation of your refrigerator door.
-
Durable construction: Heavy-duty metal bracket built to withstand repeated door openings and closing cycles over years of use.
-
Cost-effective fix: Replacing just the hinge bracket can restore door alignment and sealing function without needing to replace the entire door, liner or mounting system.
-
Straightforward installation: Once compatibility is confirmed with your technician, this bracket replaces the old one by removing mounting screws, installing the new bracket in the same location and verifying door alignment.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
The refrigerator door sags, doesn’t close flush, or appears mis-aligned with the cabinet when shut.
-
The door binds, scrapes, or is difficult to open/close smoothly—suggesting the pivot point or bracket is worn or damaged.
-
You hear or feel unusual noise or resistance around the hinge area when swinging the door.
-
Visual inspection shows the old bracket is bent, cracked, loose or mounting screws are stripped—indicating bracket failure.
If any of these symptoms are evident, ask your maintenance technician to verify that the hinge bracket 240313803 is the correct part and that the door liner and hinge pins are intact.
Compatibility / Partial Model Notes
-
According to parts listings, 240313803 is listed as “Center Hinge / Bracket” for Frigidaire refrigerators. frigidaireapplianceparts.com+1
-
Because different models, production years and door styles may use slightly different hinge brackets (different finishes, tab positions, hole spacing), it is essential to verify your appliance’s full model number (including suffix letters) and compare your old bracket’s mounting hole pattern and orientation before ordering.

This part replaces earlier numbers such as 890920 in some listings. appliancerepair.homedepot.com
Compatibility Notes
-
Matching your appliance’s full model number, including suffix codes (e.g., “XAA”, “SS”, etc.) is crucial—even if the old bracket appears identical—because subtle variations in door liner design or hinge spacing may exist.
-
Replacing the bracket restores the pivot support only if the hinge pin, door liner and related mounting hardware are in good condition. If the door or liner is bent, or the hinge pin is worn, you may still encounter alignment issues.
-
Installation tip: Disconnect the refrigerator’s power (if recommended), remove door contents, support the door (so it doesn’t shift when bracket is removed), unscrew old bracket, clean mounting surface, install the new 240313803 bracket, align door, tighten screws to manufacturer torque, then test door swing and seal.
