Repair guidance / AEG / BR4
A door does not close evenly
Tell us whether the appliance is freestanding or integrated and whether a furniture panel has moved. Door alignment and a sealing complaint can overlap. Do not adjust a heavy integrated door or tilt the cabinet to compensate before the fitting is assessed.
A different pattern: the appliance makes a new noise
Describe whether the sound is continuous, intermittent or linked to opening a door. Ordinary operation can include several sounds, so a change from its usual pattern matters. Noise alone cannot confirm a compressor fault or establish repair suitability.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.
Identify this AEG model
Include the product number (PNC) from the rating label if it is safely accessible.
Planning a West Wickham appointment
State the full BR4 address and which Monday–Thursday days you could attend. A preference is not a confirmed slot. Keep the fault sequence and model details with the address so the team can check the work before offering a visit.
Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “a door does not close evenly”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “a door does not close evenly”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the appliance makes a new noise”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your West Wickham postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the appliance makes a new noise” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
