- Bottom Hinge Work: Unscrew the bottom hinge and remove the adjustable feet from both sides.
- Reverse the Hinge: Unscrew and remove the bottom hinge pin, then flip the bracket over and reattach it.
- Reassemble the Bottom: Refit the bracket with the bottom hinge pin and replace both adjustable feet.
- Rehang the Door: Carefully place the door back on, making sure it aligns horizontally and vertically so the seals close properly on all sides before tightening the top hinge.
- Reattach the Top Cover: Put the top cover back on and secure it with the two screws at the back.
