Details

The Avantco 178CFD1KITFR Field Reversible Hinge Kit is an OEM replacement kit designed for converting the hinge orientation on Avantco glass door freezer and cooler display cases. This kit enables field conversion from left-hinged to right-hinged door configuration without removing the cabinet from service. The kit includes all necessary hinge components, brackets, pins, and fasteners required to reverse door swing direction while maintaining proper alignment and seal integrity on glass door equipment.

Field reversible hinge kits are needed when display case placement or floor layout requires the door to swing in the opposite direction. Converting hinges with improper methods or non-OEM components can result in misalignment, gaps that compromise door sealing, binding during operation, or hinge failures. Using an OEM reversible kit ensures the door conversion is completed correctly with proper geometry and performance.

Installation of the 178CFD1KITFR requires the refrigeration unit to be powered down. The complete existing hinge assembly must be disassembled and removed from the cabinet. New kit components are installed in the reverse configuration using the cabinet's pre-designed mounting locations for field reversal. Standard hand tools are required for installation work. After the conversion is complete, operate the glass door through multiple cycles to ensure smooth, balanced swinging, complete closure without gaps, and proper sealing. Always verify door swing clearance in the new orientation and ensure the door does not contact adjacent surfaces or equipment. Following kit instructions ensures successful field conversion.
