Good Afternoon davidjpolinsky, thank you for your post!

It appears that the direction in which your refrigerator door opens (door swing) for the above-listed model number, FGHT1844KR can be reversed. This can be done from left to right or right to left, by moving the door hinges from one side to the other. However, this is highly recommended to be done by an experiencing technician. I have located the Owner’s Guide with door removal and reversal instructions on the manufacturer website. I hope this information helps to some degree. Should I be of any additional assistance, please feel free to reconnect!
