I need to inspect (and probably change) the hinges but I can’t get the damn door apart. I’ve removed the 2 screws at the bottom, so can open-up the bottom, but there aren’t any other screws (except those attaching the hinges) and I can’t see what’s holding the top edge. I presume it’s a clip but I cant get the front and back to slide in either direction. Help!

Sorted! The secret is to pull the inner glass panel off to reveal the screws holding the handle. Simples!
The odd thing is that the hinges seem perfectly OK but they don’t fully close the door – a small gap remains at the top. The door can be shut easily with a gentle push but the gap re-appears when the push stops.
Re: Dismantling Neff U1661 oven door
I pulled the oven and removed the “receivers” (needs the oven bottom removing) and found that one of them was bent – a big hammer and a small amount of skill unbent it. I put both “receivers” back with a 1mm washer between the top and the oven front (to slightly increase the angle) and the door now shuts better than it ever has.
Door problems seem to be quite common so maybe this will help someone.
