If you lift the door from the bottom with your hand, it will raise up to make the striker align perfectly. How do we make this adjustment (to the hinge?). Thanks, Art

If not, here is the replacement hinge Part number: AP3128729 and here is a service manual which may help. https://secured.whirlpoo...ILE/Duet%20Job%20Aid.pdf
