That's an easier way to cure the issue. Inside the oven door is four screws, on bottom of door two screws, on top of door two screws...at least on the Attwood Wedgewood Vision. You should be able to find details on yours online in order to see how to gain access to the two springs inside that hold the door closed. Regular documentation on the oven doesn't tell squat about the door. if mine was sagging, I would just start removing screws...but I am kind of bold that way. My belief is that screws on bottom and top allow front half of oven door to separate from back half to expose springs, etc. The four screws inside the oven door hold the world together.

I have the Wedgewood vision and tore the whole door apart and could not find a way to make it close tighter so this is the only way that worked on mine and it was easy to do and cheap

Unfortunately these gas ovens are hard to light the pilot light without leaning on the door, and they're easy to bend if you do.

Atwood.
I found a way. take two towels and place one on each side of the hinges and then close the door....gently. you can tighten it up that way.
you can also replace the door, instructions in manual on how to remove it.
thirdly, go to the raly, and????
