I need to remove the door glass for cleaning around the trim. How is the inner white plastic part secured? One screw near the handle and two near the latch but even with them removed it is not free. I assume it is clicked / latched into place but I have no idea where I have to force it apart. Any ideas? Thanks.

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

Samsung WD4000 door glass/trim removal obstructed by hidden screws

The problem
The owner wanted to remove the door glass on a Samsung WD4000 to clean around the trim. After removing the visible screws near the handle and latch, the inner white plastic section still would not come free.
Likely cause
The discussion supports that hidden fixing screws were present under stickers. It was also suggested that some appliance doors are effectively non-serviceable as separate components, with only a complete door available, but this was not confirmed for this exact model.
What fixed it
Check carefully for hidden screws, particularly under stickers. The owner then intended to check with Samsung whether individual door components were available, as no separate parts were found on the spares site mentioned. The exact method of dismantling the door was not confirmed.
Checks to try
  • Removed the visible screws near the handle and latch
  • Found two additional screws hidden under stickers
  • Observed one tiny hole that might contain a latch
  • Checked a spares site and found no individual door components listed
Parts or tools mentioned
  • screws hidden under stickers
  • complete door

Some of these doors are designed to be unrepairable. Some of them have a hidden screw so look out for a hidden screw hole under a sticker for example. I would check on Ransom Spares to see if you can buy the separate parts or not. If you can then obviously it must come apart somehow. But if all you can see is a complete door then the very strong implication is that you cannot take it apart, or at the very least you cannot buy separate parts and must buy the complete door.

Thanks, Two screws were under stickers as you suggested. There is one tiny hole that might have a latch or something inside but no way to see. Tried twisting / turning / pulling just don't want to force it to breaking point.

Nothing on that spares site. I will try Samsung to see if individual components are available.

Thanks
