So after many years with a broken door handle and looking around the web and realizing how much an original part (EAN: 4002515193884 / Material number: 06239404 ) would cost I decided to put my new printer to use and design my own fridge handle.

This is my very first self designed model :)

The “bump” on the inside corner is there to give it a bit of resistence where I thought it could break from stress. Maybe overkill but it does not look bad.
The little edge hangs on the door edge giving it an extra support point to decrease material stress when oppening.

On this print I slightly miscalculated. Due to the curve of the fridge door there is not a lot of space between the door and the handle. As you can see in the pictures. But is is completly usable as the hand/fingers can fit there.

If you have larger hands you might want to use v2 where I added 0.5cm to the space between the door and handle and enlarged the bump for extra resistence.
I haven't printed this version myself as I am happy with v1.

I printed in PLA with gyroid infill at 60% and it is very solid. Feel free to remix to your needs.

The 4 x screw holes match original (3mm holes with screw slots). And the outside is counter sunk so the screws will be flush with the surface. This way you can reuse the original screws.
You might have to remix for different sized screws.
