CS1345B – Universal Supco Refrigerator French Door Spring
The CS1345B Universal Supco Refrigerator French Door Spring is a high-quality aftermarket replacement designed for French door refrigerators, primarily compatible with many Samsung® models. This spring applies the correct tension to the refrigerator door mullion (centre flap), allowing it to engage and retract properly as the doors open and close.

When the original spring breaks or loses tension, replacing it can restore proper door operation and help maintain an effective refrigerator door seal.
What Does the French Door Spring Do?
The French door spring is a small but essential mechanical component located within the door mullion assembly. Its primary function is to provide tension that automatically retracts and positions the centre flap as the refrigerator doors open and close.
A properly functioning spring helps ensure:
- The door flap closes correctly every time
- Both refrigerator doors seal properly
- Cold air remains inside the refrigerator
- Energy efficiency is maintained
- Excess wear on the door mullion assembly is reduced
Using a quality replacement spring that meets original design specifications helps ensure reliable operation and long service life.
Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement
A damaged or broken French door spring commonly causes:
- Centre door flap (mullion) does not retract
- Refrigerator door will not close completely
- Door flap remains open after closing
- Refrigerator doors require extra force to shut
- Warm air entering the refrigerator compartment
- Poor door sealing
- Increased cooling loss and energy consumption
- Loose or floppy door mullion
Replacing the damaged spring often restores normal operation when the spring itself is the source of the problem. However, damaged mullion components or door hinges can produce similar symptoms and should also be inspected.
