My Lamona fridge door is not closing. It seem like the door may have dropped little...nothing drastic as I can't see inside or anything but enough for it not to be closing. I tried changing the gasket/seal but this made no difference. I also took off the front decorative door to see if this was part of problem...but even without it on..the fridge door behaves in same way. I was thinking it may be the brackets / hinges but i can't see how to replace or adjust them. Is there a way of working out what the cause could be before i spend more money on wasted spare parts.

Thanks for now.
 
A picture of the hinges might help, I am assuming the fridge is on a level floor and not twisting the chassis at all?
 
Thanks...the fridge has been in same place for 3 years with no probs..and it seems straight. I've enclosed a picture of hinges, and how it looks right now. Cheers!
 
Can't see any adjustment is it possible to see the hinge with the door open?
 
thanks...of course...ive added an image as requested. can you see it? anything else..happy to do..just want to avoid having to replace fridge or get an expensive repair bill. Thank you.
 
I would try loosening the screw in the keyhole slot and try moving the hinge to the left which should tip the door up if the lower one has any movement to the right that would help too I think.
 
cheers again. I tried poking around but don't even know what the keyhole slot is and can't see any screws...only thing similar is the 2 large ones on the front (like on new image). Is it these? I don't have anything that can turn these. Thank you
 
No the picture with the door open shows a screw into the fridge body in a slot shaped like a keyhole on it's side loosen the screw and move the whole door and hinge to the left (lifting the right hand side of the door up)

The screws look like they can be turned with either a flat bladed screwdriver or a Torx bit that has splines around the bit
