Request: Fixing a Refrigerator Door Handle
Archived on 11/13/2009
I have a 26" side by side Maytag refrigerator. The handle snapped out of the top mounting clip. I thought this was simple and all I'd have to do is clip it back on. I have tried without success. The brackets on the handle won't snap into the base clip that is screwed onto the door.
Anyone out there who has ever had a similar experience? Right now the door handle is secured by the bottom clip. We are currently opening the fridge by simply prying the door from the top. I don't even want to think about calling a repair man for something so trivial.

Is there a glue I can use to fix a white fridge door handle? Any other tips would be appreciated.

Gorilla Glue rocks, maybe that will work? You can find it at Home Depot, Lowe's, home improvement stores, maybe even WalMart? Use a little, it expands! (05/08/2007)

This will fix you up. You can get it at Home Depot or Walmart (sometimes you have to look in the sports dept). It's called Household Goop or Shoe Goo. It is the best stuff, and you can use it for everything. (05/09/2007)

How about trying some E6000 super stuff glue. It dries clear and you find it at Michael's or Hobby Lobby stores. It is really, really strong stuff. (05/09/2007)

Gorilla Glue works well and is supposed to be nearly impossible to come unglued. Good luck.
Editor's Note: Take care to keep Gorilla Glue out of the reach of children and pets. It expands in the stomach if eaten and requires surgery to remove. We've been trying to get them to have better warnings on their packaging for years! (05/09/2007)

Gorilla glue is good. I also use Liquid Nails. They now have a new Liquid Nails that dries clear. I love this product! (05/09/2007)

At work they used duct duck (sp) tape on the handle. It has worked fine with a large group of nurses going in and out of it all day long. (05/10/2007)
