Door will not open?

We have the Beko Tall Larder Fridge which in general works very well but of late the door will not open properly. It is ok if going to the Fridge after a while but, if you return within a short period the door remains firmly shut and no amount of pulling on the handle will release it. Any ideas as to cause or to cure.

Why is the door being held shut? Try this:

1 Door open: relative warm air from room enters

2 Close door: fridge sealed.

3 Air inside starts to cool.

4 Cool air contracts

5 Pressure inside fridge reduces

6 Outside pressure holds door firmly shut.

7 After a while, enough air leaks in to raise the internal pressure sufficiently to allow the door to be opened.

Why is that happening?

There needs to be a way air can leak into the fridge a bit quicker

What holes are there?

What sometimes appears inside the fridge that you would need got rid of?

Condensation.

Check the manual for where the condensation drain is and make sure that is clear of ice and congealed goo. (Search online for the manual if you need to).

I find a bit if old fashioned plastic covered spring wire for net curtains works really well for clearing condensate drains.

YouTube and G##gle in general are useful if you need more advice
