The door will not stay closed

Describe whether the door will not latch, drops out of alignment or closes but produces a warning. Stop use if it cannot close normally. Do not tape it shut or bypass the safety switch. Give the model and an external view of the hinge and catch area for the enquiry.

Compare this observation: the dryer stops before clothes are dry

Give the selected automatic or timed setting and describe the laundry when the cycle ends. Tell us whether completion looks normal or a warning interrupts it. Different load conditions can affect an automatic programme, but a new stopping pattern needs assessment. Avoid repeatedly extending operation if overheating or unusual smells occur.

The fitting is behind a furniture panel.

Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.

For the Petts Wood address

Use the complete BR5 postcode for a Petts Wood enquiry. Keep the fault code separate from the model number; the two details identify different things.

Read the identity, not just the badge.

Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.

A useful question for the enquiry

Does “the door will not stay closed” establish the failed part?

No. Describe that observation separately from “the dryer stops before clothes are dry”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
