Did you know about this button on your oven door and what it does?

Safety tips before you start pulling doors off

Removing the oven door is not hard, but you do need to be sensible about it.

Always:

– Make sure the oven is completely off and fully cooled before touching the door or hinges.
– Use both hands and support the door from underneath – the glass and metal make it heavier than it looks.
– Keep kids and pets away while you’re working so nobody bumps you mid-move.
– Place the door on a flat, soft surface (like a towel on the floor or counter) to avoid scratching or cracking the glass.
– Check your manufacturer’s manual or website for any model-specific instructions.

Handled properly, this isn’t a risky job – but dropping a glass-front oven door definitely is, so don’t rush it.
