What This Part Does

The door handle is the part you pull each time you open your washing machine or tumble dryer, and it works together with the door catch to keep the door held shut during a wash or dry cycle. Over time the handle can wear, crack or stop springing back properly, making the door difficult or impossible to open and close correctly.

Common Fault Symptoms

• The handle feels loose or does not spring back after use
• The handle is visibly cracked, chipped or has snapped off
• The door will not open or close properly, or does not latch

Repair Difficulty

Moderate. Fitting typically takes around 30 minutes and involves accessing the inner door frame to swap the handle mechanism over.

Typical Tools Required

• Screwdriver (size depends on your appliance model)
