Good Morning Fferraiolo,

I understand that you are having trouble with your Frigidaire side by side refrigerators doors closing flush. First, I would check to make sure that there is nothing inside your refrigerator that is keeping the doors from closing all the way. Secondly, make sure that you close the doors gently. Sometimes, if a door is closed hard, it can cause the other door to open slightly. Thirdly, make sure the refrigerator is leveled correctly. Ensure your floor is level and solid, and can adequately support the refrigerator. Contact a carpenter to correct a sagging or sloping floor. Lastly, you will want to make sure the doors are level.

To level the doors using the adjustable lower hinge:

1 Before leveling either door, remove set screw that locks door height into position. (The door cannot be adjusted without set screw removed).

2 If the refrigerator door is lower than the freezer door, raise the refrigerator door by turning the adjustment screw clockwise using a 7/16 inch wrench.

3 If the freezer door is lower than the refrigerator door, raise the freezer door by turning the adjustment screw clockwise using a 7/16 inch wrench.

4 After leveling, verify door stop contacts lower hinge and top of door does not contact upper hinge through full movement of door (from fully closed to fully open).

5 Reinstall set screw, locking the door height.

6 Replace the toe grille by fitting it into place.

If you have tried all of these suggestions with no solution, I suggest either contacting the manufacturer or your local authorized technician.

-Best Regards-
