The door feels too heavy
Stop using a door that drops unexpectedly or feels unsafe to support. Tell us whether it has a furniture panel and whether the problem involves weight, alignment or catching the plinth. Leave springs and hinges assembled. A model photograph and a view of the closed front help identify the fitting arrangement.
Compare this observation: detergent is left in the dispenser
Describe the dispenser position after the cycle and whether the remaining detergent is dry or partly dissolved. Include loading changes and whether the wash completed. Leave the machine's safety latch intact; never operate it with the door defeated to observe spraying. The wash sequence helps establish which checks are appropriate.
The equipment shares its position.
Tell us about stacked equipment, neighbouring cupboards or other fittings that limit access. A visible connection is not an invitation to loosen it.
For the Hayes address
Specify Hayes in Bromley, Kent, with the complete BR2 postcode. This avoids confusing the address with other places named Hayes.
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 feels too heavy” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “detergent is left in the dispenser”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the equipment shares its position. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
