Goot thinking NRC, that had not occurred to me.It might help if you adjust the floor underneath or legs so that it sits a degree or two differently. Might be less likely to bounce open.
Checked all that tks.One thing to check is if there has been any ice build up around the drawers or at the back of the drawers (presumably there are drawers) as this might leave one or more of the drawers sitting proud and therefore stopping the door making the correct seal.
Yeah, that instruction has been given to all, but old habits etc, it will happen again.make sure the door is firmly closed after opening rather then "banging" it closed
It's a stand-alone under-counter freezer, not integrated, tks.Is it an integrated freezer or stand-alone type?
As @NoRegretsCoyote said above, adjust the front legs (assuming they are there, most have them) so that should the door 'bounce' open then gravity will gently assist it to fall slowly closed.It's a stand-alone under-counter freezer, not integrated, tks.
The freezer is sitting in a corner on a slightly off level 1950’s suspended timber floor.As @NoRegretsCoyote said above, adjust the front legs (assuming they are there, most have them) so that should the door 'bounce' open then gravity will gently assist it to fall slowly closed.
This is usually achieved by having the front slightly higher than the back and the hinged side marginally raised compared to the non-hinged side (though often not necessary) .
Good to hear, see, there's more than one way to skin a cat, as they say in the Dordogne .Anyway, problem solved, thanks all for the advice.
