W10208415 / WPW10208415 Dryer Washer Door Hinge
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty Reinforced Steel: Constructed from high-strength metal alloy to support the significant weight of front-load washer and dryer doors, preventing sagging over time.
- Precision Pivot Points: Engineered for smooth, silent operation, allowing the door to swing open and closed without binding or squeaking.
- Corrosion-Resistant Coating: Features a specialized finish to protect the hinge from the high humidity and moisture common in laundry environments, preventing rust and seized joints.
- Dual-Appliance Compatibility: Designed as a versatile "Exact Fit" component that works equally well on both front-load washing machines and matching dryers.

Compatibility & Fitment
This hinge is a standard replacement for many 27-inch and 29-inch front-load laundry units manufactured by Whirlpool. Key compatible brands include:
- Whirlpool: Fits Duet, Duet Sport, and WFW series models (e.g., WFW94HEXW, WED9200SQ).
- Maytag: Compatible with many Maxima and Epic Z series (e.g., MHW6000XW, MEDE200XW).
- Kenmore / Sears: Fits various Elite and 110-series models (e.g., 110.47511701).
- Crosley & Amana: Compatible with select front-load units utilizing the 10208415 hinge configuration.
When to Replace
- Door Sagging: The door sits lower than the latch, requiring you to lift it upward to get it to close and lock.
- Visible Metal Fatigue: The hinge plate is bent, or the pivot pins have developed significant "play," making the door feel wobbly.
- Binding or Resistance: The door is difficult to swing open or closed, or it makes a loud grinding or snapping metal sound during operation.
- Door Won't Latch: Because the hinge is bent, the door strike no longer aligns with the door switch, preventing the machine from starting.
Installation Tips
- Support the Weight: Front-load doors are surprisingly heavy. Have a second person hold the door or place a sturdy box underneath it to support the weight while you unscrew the old hinge.
- Accessing the Screws: You typically need to remove the front decorative trim or "bellows" clamp to access the screws that secure the hinge to the machine's front panel.
- Screw Management: Keep the door-side screws and the cabinet-side screws separate, as they are often different lengths or thread types.
- Alignment: Loosely start all screws before tightening any of them fully. This allows you to adjust the door's "squareness" to ensure the latch hits the center of the door switch.
- Safety Check: Once installed, ensure the door opens at least 90 to 120 degrees without hitting the machine's trim, and verify that the door lock engages smoothly on the first try.
