Whirlpool dryer. Changing left side opening to right side.

Hello, Frazer -

Without knowing the make and model of you clothes dryer, it is a challenge to provide you with the precise directions for changing the swing of your dryer door. With that being said, this YouTube video may prove helpful to you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VW9183PsCLc .

How did I find the YouTube video? Using Google I entered the following search statement, with quotation marks, as indicated: "clothes dryer door swing" .

This web page with written directions may also prove helpful:

Best wishes.

Here is a diagram of that unit. It shows a left and a right side punch-out for venting. I hope this helps!

That is correct. What you want to do is take the lint trap out of the machine, on the top right side. When you do this you'll notice two screws that are there. Remove these screws, they are attached to the blower housing. With that done, take a flat screwdriver and slide it in betweenn the top and front of the dryer on the left or right front side and gently pry (pop) the top up. With that done, there are two screws on the upper inside on the left and right. Take these out and then you'll be able to lift and pull the front of the machine off.

These units are made to have doors to open on the left or right. You just have to look at the hook up now and repeat it on the other side to reverse the door opening.

Open the dryer door. There should be approximately three screws that hold the hinges on there on the right side (as you said yours currently is a left to right opening). Remove the screws that hold the door on. As you hold the dryer door removed from the dryer, turn it counter clockwise so that the handle is now on the opposite side. Lay it on the floor. Now, remove the screw hole covers from the opposite side of the dryer opening ( the left side) (these can be removed with a fingernail or a thin flat tipped screw driver to pry them out). This will expose the screw holes on the opposite (left)side of the dryer. Take the removed covers and place them in the original screw holes on the right side. Now simply reinstall the door hinges in the newly exposed screw holes on the left side. This will only work if your dryer is designed to have both types of openings. Good Luck!

Yes ,most dryers will allow this. although you will have to remove door to do it. You should see mount holes on the other side of door sometimes have plugs to remove or srews. The hinges on the door will have to be moved to opposite side. Once again should see mount holes. The whole operation takes a matter of minutes once you see how it is done. Hope this helps

Look in the whirlpool wedsite for you make and model and for spare parts list.

yes you do

sorry but the washer can not be changed. its strike has a lock and can not be reversed. the dryer can be changed, but the best thing to do is move the units and get some longer hoses for the washer.
hopefully you can switch the position of the units, but if not then you will be doing the laundry dance every time you do wash.

the door on any frontload whirlpool washer cannot be changed from side to side.only the dryer
