Hotpoint Fridge & Freezer Door Hinge
This Hettich door hinge is to fit the upper right hand or lower left hand of the fridge or freezer as you look at the front of the unit. Please note that we do strongly recommend that you replace both hinges at once as, normally, we find that when one goes the other is sure to follow and often customers end up re-ordering the other within weeks of replacing one.
There is now a lower cost door hinge kit available from the related items that allows a more affordable way to change both hinges and for more information on stability please see the guidance notes below.
For the hinge to fit in the other positions, either top left or bottom right, please see part number C00093690 from the related items menu to the right.

Integrated
Door Hinges
Fridge and freezer door hinges wear over time, causing doors to rub, misalign, or even fall. Replacing worn hinges ensures safe and smooth operation.
About Integrated Door Hinges
Door hinges on integrated fridges and freezers are often Hettich or Ingol, although other brand-specific hinges exist. Top and bottom hinges are usually “opposite” of one another, swapping positions if the door is reversed.
We strongly recommend replacing both hinges at the same time. Many manufacturers now sell door hinges as a kit, as if one fails, the other is likely to follow soon after.
To identify Hettich hinges, check the number stamped on the plate fixing the outer wooden door (e.g., 3362 5.0). The hinge end may have a number (41.5 or 45). If it’s 45, contact us before ordering, as these can be model-specific.

Beko Europe & Whirlpool Group Specialist
Hotpoint
Spare Parts.
Hotpoint remains Britain's most ubiquitous appliance brand. Following the 2005 Indesit acquisition and subsequent Whirlpool ownership, it is now part of Beko Europe. This legacy means components are shared across Hotpoint, Indesit, Ariston, and Whirlpool machines globally.
The Data Accuracy Requirement
Hotpoint production involves constant technical revisions. To guarantee fitment, we require the Full Model, Industrial Code, or Serial Number. A part that looks identical may have different terminal configurations or thermostat tolerances.
Group-Wide Fitment
Many Hotpoint parts are identical to those badged under Indesit or Whirlpool. We use our technical legacy database to cross-reference these shared components, often identifying more affordable "group-standard" options that keep your appliances running efficiently.
Verified Suitability
As with modern vehicles, appliance parts change mid-production. Our standing advice is to ask our specialists to confirm fitment if you are unsure. We provide manual verification to ensure that the part you receive is exactly what your machine requires.
Confirm Your Hotpoint Parts
Don't risk ordering the wrong part for your washing machine or oven. Our technical helpdesk can cross-reference your codes against the entire Beko Europe network to find the exact component you need.
