The 29R has been in U-Line’s catalog long enough that units of very different ages carry the same model number, and it is one of the few refrigerators where the door hardware has a performance specification of its own: ADA compliance requires the door to be operable with one hand at under five pounds of force. When a 29R gets stiff to open, that is not only a comfort issue — it means the unit no longer meets the requirement it was bought for, and the hinges and gasket are the place to start.
