l--O^0--king forward to the pictures. I think you're saying the Fridge itself is out of position, not the connection of the door TO the fridge at the hinge. That really seems odd. Have you moved the trailer with the fridge doors open? When you send the pix, please include the Norcold Model and its Age. The Norcold "N" series, usually N6xx and N8xx, have plastic hinge components that are known to break. Norcold sells a support kit, but it only works if added Before the thing breaks. After broken it's a new door or home made reinforcements (and a lot of us have done reinforcements!). Anyhow, we have an N811 and it was made in 2002. Its hingea are different from the ones that benefit from Norcold's kit, so we need to make sure what you have before talking hinge kits. If it DOES use that fragile hinge, then DO GET the Kit. One of our OP's got two kits and did both hinges of both Fridge and Freezer. The kit is two brackets but only one fits a lower hinge. The other is for either the upper hinge, or the lower hinge if the door is hung from the other side of the frame. Means you can't buy one kit and reinforce both lower hinges.
