Cavalier 72 main door removal

[SodaShopNick]

Okay, I give up...how do you remove the main door off of a Cavalier 72?   The hinges have a cap on the bottom and the top.  Do these need to be removed to be able to lift the door?  Are you just supposed to be able to open the door about 90 degrees to the body and lift it?  I have tried this and it does not seem to work, but then it probably has not been removed since it was built.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Nick,

The cabinet door should lift off.  You may have to spray some penetrating oil like PB Blaster and work it back & forth while applying upward pressure. Hopefully, everything is still present inside the cabinet to keep it as heavy as possible while attempting to lift off a difficult door...

Also took the liberty of posting a short video about the process... At the bottom of the page

Hopefully helpful...

WOW.  What else could I ask for.  This is perfect!!  I also see the video about the bottle door which I am sure I will be using.  Thank you for all you do.

A little more elbow grease, a little PB blaster and off came the door.  Thanks Jim!!!

Can I assume that the door removal for a vendo H81 is basically the same method?

Zerbie,  lift off cabinet door as well; just be sure electric is disconnected...

I cut the wire and when re installing the door I use spade terminals to re connect the hot wire .
