Hot point fridge freezer door problem

[cheshireblue12]

Hi can anyone help ?
Our fridge freezer, freezer external door has started to go rusty on the outside.
Rather than replace the whole unit I was thinking about replacing the freezer door.
I can purchase a new door but was wondering if anyone can let me know if replacing the door was a difficult job?
Any advise gratefully accepted.
Thanks in advance.

Most fridge/freezer doors are designed to be removable so that the handing can be changed. Usually just a case of removing the top hinge and lifting the door off, so replacement is the reverse. You might have to remove both doors to change the freezer door but shouldn't be an onerous task.

Thanks for the advice it appears it may be worth trying a new door rather than buying a new fridge freezer.
