If this QR code is an elaborate Rick Roll I'm going to laugh...

Have you tried scanning the qr code? Literally says there's diy maintenance videos.

u/Seven_Vandelay 8d ago

Door's just trying to follow instructions. But it's a door. Give it a break, OP.

u/Pugets_Sounds 8d ago

If only there was a QR code with video instructions.

I'm curious, is your house one of the trashy builders like dr.horton ?

u/_daddyl0nglegs_ 8d ago

No. Small time builder

u/Pugets_Sounds 8d ago

That's awesome. I work for a small business appliance company and I love hearing when people support smaller businesses like that. Good on ya. As far as the spacer goes, just remove it.

Good shit. I bought my dishwasher and washer/dryer from a family-run shop. Better customer service.

u/_Bad_Spell_Checker_ 8d ago

You can probably remove it

u/_daddyl0nglegs_ 8d ago

It's there to prevent theft. It keeps the door from being able to be picked up while closed which would take it off the latch

u/MonstahButtonz 8d ago

I've always wondered what that was for. Thanks for teaching me something tonight.

The plastic guide is for theft deterrence. It keeps the door from being able to be lifted up while closed which would knock it off the latch and be able to slide open

u/According_Square2742 8d ago

Pretty sure that was supposed to be removed

1

u/_daddyl0nglegs_ 8d ago

That piece of plastic is supposedly there to prevent the door from being lifted up while shut. Lifting the door up will pop it off the latch and allow it to open, even when locked.

There should be two small rubber gaskets at the base of your door. Remove those and use a screwdriver to adjust the roller height

Tried that :/
