Glad to see your post, thought I am late. Also glad you said "there may be
another far easier way", I take it you mean this is as you assemble the door.
The trouble is, the locked hinge is already at right angle to the door and
cannot be rotated out because is is locked. Mine is a Whirlpool AKP 262/1X but
the concept all sounds the same. When putting the door back with the hinge
locked at right angle, the door will be in close position. The hinge won't
budge because it is locked. May be we are describing different problem or may
be your model is completely different but desperate for any help just in case
what you suggest can work on mine. Thanks.
