Default Change door from Right hand open to Left hand open
Brand: Whirlpool
Model Number: ET6JTKXKQ00
Age: 5 - 10 years

I just changed the Refrigerator from a Right hand open to a left hand open door for both Freezer and refrig doors.

When Finished the freezer door sits about 1/8 to 1/4 inch higher. As a Left hand open door, the middle hinge does not sit at the same level as when it is a Right hand open. It makes a tight seal but the diagram shows the same part for either left or right hand swing doors. Can you confirm this please?

Part: PS325064.
ModelNumber: ET6JTKXKQ00
PartDescription In this Model: HINGE-DOOR
Part Location: #16

Yes the same hinge is used for both the left hand and the right hand swing.

Here is a link to your fridge model ET6JTKXKQ00.
