(2 Pack) EXP570 Dryer Door Latch Kit
XPARTCO (2 Pack) EXP570 Dryer Door Latch Kit
The XPARTCO (2 Pack) EXP570 is a two-kit set of aftermarket replacement door catch and strike kits for dryers from Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Frigidaire, GE, Hotpoint, Inglis, LG, and other comparable brands. The catch and strike work as a pair: the strike on the dryer door engages the catch on the cabinet to hold the door shut for the whole cycle. When either part wears, cracks, or gets knocked out of alignment, the door stops latching reliably. It may not stay closed, it may pop open mid-cycle and let heat escape, or the dryer may refuse to start because it doesn't register the door as closed.
This 2-pack includes 2 kits, for a total of 2 door catches and 2 strikes. Each kit has 1 door catch and 1 strike, so you can replace the full latch set in one repair rather than guessing which half is worn, and keep a second kit for another dryer or a future repair. Because this latch design was used across several appliance families, the kit carries a long cross-reference list covering Whirlpool, Frigidaire, GE, LG, and Alliance-built part numbers; see the Replaces list below.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO (2 Pack) EXP570 Dryer Door Latch Kit fixes a dryer door that won't stay closed, opens mid-cycle, or an open-door condition that keeps the dryer from starting, caused by a worn or damaged catch and strike. This 2-pack includes 2 kits (2 door catches and 2 strikes). Fits Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Roper, Estate, Frigidaire, GE, Hotpoint, Inglis, and LG dryers. Classic symptom: the door swings open on its own, or you have to hold it shut to get the dryer to run.

Note: This kit fits specific models within each brand, not every dryer a brand has made, and the latch design differs between manufacturers.

Installation Notes
Frequently Asked Questions
My dryer door won't stay shut — is this the part I need?
Very likely. A worn or damaged catch or strike is a common reason a dryer door won't latch or pops open mid-cycle. Inspect both parts for cracks or wear. Because the two work as a pair, replacing both at once is the surest fix.
My dryer won't start and seems to think the door is open. Could this be the cause?
It can be. If the door isn't latching fully, the dryer may not register it as closed. If the latch looks fine and the door closes firmly but the dryer still won't start, the door switch may be the problem instead.
What's included in the kit?
This 2-pack includes 2 kits, and each kit has 1 door catch and 1 strike, so you get 2 catches and 2 strikes in total. If you only need the catch, we also offer it separately as the EXP571 Dryer Door Catch.
Will this fit my Whirlpool, Frigidaire, GE, or LG dryer?
This kit is cross-referenced to part numbers from all of those brands, but it fits specific models rather than every dryer. Match the number on your old latch parts or parts diagram against the Replaces list, or contact our support team with your model number and we'll confirm before you order.
