What it is
These are the front panel door fixings for Ideal gas appliances, supplied as a catch and hinge set for the outer casing door. They hold the front panel closed and allow it to swing clear when an engineer needs access to the combustion area and controls. The fixings are listed under Ideal part number 179278 and are used across the Independent + Combi and Independent Combi ranges.
Signs this part needs replacing
- The front panel door will not stay shut and springs open on its own
- The catch has snapped, cracked or lost its spring tension
- The hinge pin or bracket is worn, so the door drops or binds when opened
- The panel rattles or sits proud of the casing when closed
- The door has to be held in place by hand during servicing
Before you order
- Check the GC number or serial plate on the appliance against the compatibility list before ordering, as the same casing style is used across several output variants
- Confirm the existing fixing matches the layout shown for part 179278, and note the alternative number 1775911 when cross-referencing older documentation
- This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
