Description
If your built-in refrigerator cabinet door no longer opens smoothly, the small plastic slider that connects the cabinet panel to the fridge door has probably broken.
This model is a 3D printable replacement connector for the common fridge sliding door system used in many integrated kitchens.
Instead of buying an expensive spare part (or replacing the whole mechanism), you can simply print a new one in a few hours.
This project contains two parts:
• Sliding rail – mounted on the cabinet door
• Connector clip – mounted on the refrigerator door
Together they recreate the classic sliding linkage system used in many integrated refrigerators.
Your cabinet door and refrigerator door will now open and close together smoothly again.
Material: PETG recommended (PLA works but PETG is stronger)
Layer height: 0.2 mm
Walls: 2
Infill: 15%
Supports: Not required
Printed on a Bambu Lab printer, but should work on any FDM printer.
This type of sliding connector is used on many integrated refrigerator systems, including those commonly found in modular kitchen furniture.
Check the dimensions to confirm compatibility with your original part.
The original plastic connector in my kitchen broke and the official spare part was difficult to find.
So I reverse-engineered the mechanism and created a fully printable replacement that anyone can produce quickly.
If this model helps fix your fridge, please consider:
