4027EL1001A LG Dryer Door Catch and Locker Assembly

Dryer Door Catch and Locker Assembly are essential components for LG dryers, also suitable for certain Sears-Kenmore models. This OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part ensures the dryer door remains securely closed while the machine is in operation.

Common indicators that the door latch may need replacement include:
- The door unexpectedly opens during cycles.
- Challenges in shutting the door completely and securing it.
- Loss of heating efficiency due to air escaping.
- Clothes occasionally slipping out if the door opens during operation.

These issues often stem from wear and tear on the latch's gears, which can lose their ability to tightly secure the door after prolonged usage. Additionally, excessive tightening of the door seal might contribute to undue pressure on the latch assembly.

This replacement part is designed to address problems such as the door failing to close properly and is compatible with some Kenmore models as well.
