Features & Benefits
-
Genuine OEM build: Designed by Frigidaire for fit, strength and correct mounting in compatible refrigerators. frigidaireapplianceparts.com+1
-
Critical door support: Ensures the top hinge point is properly mounted, helping prevent door sag, misalignment or binding.
-
Durable construction: Built to withstand repeated door openings, heavy loads of the door plus contents, and maintain proper alignment over time.
-
Cost-effective repair: Replacing just the hinge bracket fixes door alignment issues without needing to replace the entire door or liner.
-
Straightforward swap (once compatibility is verified): Remove old hinge bracket, align the new bracket, secure screws/bolts, and check door swing and seal.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
The refrigerator door sags, is mis-aligned or doesn’t close flush anymore.
-
Door binds or rubs when opening/closing — hinges or mounting bracket may be worn or cracked.
-
You see visible damage or cracking in the hinge bracket area around the top of the door, or hardware appears stripped.
-
After installation, you find the hinge bracket is loose, or the door shifts unexpectedly during use.
If any of these symptoms are present, ask your maintenance technician to confirm that the top hinge bracket 240327207 is the appropriate part and that other hinge components (bottom hinge, hinge pin, screw holes) are intact before ordering.
Compatibility / Partial Model Notes
This part is listed by Frigidaire as the “Top Hinge” or “Upper Hinge Bracket” with part number 240327207. appliancerepair.homedepot.com+1

Compatibility Notes
-
Matching the appliance’s entire model number, including letters and suffixes, is critical — even if the old bracket looks identical, mounting hole spacing or door thickness may vary.
-
Replacing only the hinge bracket addresses support issues only if the rest of the hinge system (pins, screws, lower hinge, door liner) is in good condition. If other components are worn or damaged, door alignment may still be off.
-
Installation tip: Unplug power and empty door contents for safety and ease, support the door while removing the old hinge bracket, align mounting holes and secure new bracket, check door swing, clearance and sealing after installation.
