As above frigging typical the day before xmas eve
What has happened is the glass door has come adrift and needs re glueing in place
So the question is what fast set high temp glur is easily available so I can stick the door back on
Yep this is an emergancy cos otherwise I will be buying a new cooker tomorrow 😥
Nice timing 🙄
Maybe JB weld
or salad 🙂
PMSL 😆
Sorry I found this very funny
Can't help with the glue however are you certain it does not simply slide back into place and of is held in place by some kind of clip - presuming it is the inner glass section of the door that has come away.
Outer glass or inner glass? The inner normally just slots into the door, the outer will normally only get warm.
online for this

Prison food
Spooky it is the outer door the brackets the glass is glued to has come unstuck the brackets are still on the cooker door
Yep I is in da poo
HELP
BBQ the turkey! Win!
Bungee bands....lots of them just until you have the cash and time to get a new oven. Trust me these things are not built to be repaired, ive tried on a few occasions and they just dont really make them that way.
some sort of hi modulus silicone sealant.
Looks like you may need to embrace the salad....
I'm sure someone can sort you out with a loan of some sorts, but a rough location will help. Anyway shops are open tomorrow 😉
Pot noodle?
Sit next to the oven for 4 hours on Xmas day holding the door in place. As long as you can reach the fridge for more booze then its a perfect plan. Don't forget to get a glass before you sit down.
Be honest OP...You were cooking a Frey Bentos pie, forgot to remove the lid and blew the oven door off didn't you??? 😀
Gaffa tape...
Assuming screwfix are open tomorrow, get some flue sealant( silicone), its good for 300 deg c so should be ok for the oven. Tape it in place until it sets and jobs a good un!
You could go vegetarian.
Use duct tape or gorilla tape to hold everything in place, i currently have gorilla tape holding my Hoover together around the plastic bodywork (for the past 3 years), as a makeshift door/bottle holder strap to stop bottles/cartons of stuff falling out the fridge door when you open it (must be at least 4yrs by now?), wee squares of the stuff stuck all over my Rab neutrino down vest to stop the down coming out where i've caught it on briars (1yr+), strip of the stuff holding my washing machine door shut (2 months) - it truly is a wonderful product and i doubt i'd manage without it. Or at least i would be very much worse off as i'd have to buy new stuff as the current appliances are all at least 12 years old and you can't get spare parts for them anymore.
Screwfix / Toolstation are open tomorrow - they'll have something.
blew the oven door off

Toolstation have some high temp silicone adhesive which is suitable. Got one near you?
This has to be a late entry for thread of the year..........
Did it just come off in your hand?
You may find something sold for car engines that has the temperature resistance and stickiness - eg, Halfords etc?
Put the Turkey in and turn the oven round so its facing the wall so the door doesn't fall off. Keep turning the oven back round every half hour (and pick up the door off the floor) to check and baste the bird?
Or lie the oven on it's back and gravity will solve the door problem. Put the bird in after you've moved the oven of course...
Wanna fitted cooker?
I know of one lurkin.
And I may be able to sort a free standing one for ya.
Txt me
Pics or it didn't happen.
If the glass has come off the door frame, then silicone will work.
My Neff oven door came off, and after a bit of research I found that silicone sealant would do the job just fine. I removed the door, stuck the brackets back on and left it flat overnight. Refitted the next day and its been fine for 2 years.
Most oven doors are completely removable by simply turning the hinge screws 45 degrees. I found my hinge was broken, and it was causing the glass to be levered off.

Does the loss of the outer door matter? I think it's only there to stop anyone burning themselves on the inner door. Barricade off the oven so the kids can't get near and cook normally I suggest.
Excellent thread chaps some genuine lol moments. Good luck op!
Was going to post the same as sl2000, the outer door is just a cool surface, it should work without it.
I did hear of another person complaining his oven was faulty, turned out he had never fitted the inner glass so the oven was never sealed, the outer glass had an inch gap top and bottom 🙂
hopefully the screwfix option of flu sealant will do the trick
BTW this post is not a wind up if all else fails on xmas day it may well be turkey steaks on the BBQ
Anybody want to borrow a stressed wife cos I have one going absolutely spare at the moment 🙄
Fair comment about the outer door not being needed but alas in my place with 2 dogs we have to take the safe option
Sharki I will give you a ring in the morning thanks buddie
Come on then, give us a location, I'm sure someone can help!
I am on the Devon somerset border just outside Wellington
I've found that the glue Clearview stoves sell in their door seal kit is brilliant. Rubbery in texture and works really well.
Will defo fix you door.
So, surely you must have been down the shops at opening time...what's the progress?
Post some pics of the repair to keep those of us at work amused!
Serious response, get to Halfords and get some Dent repair
it's called P38 - once the two solutions are mixed they go like metal/rock (whatever), but it's regularly advised when fixing fire surrounds to walls etc.
Can't say for certin if the glass will have enough texture for it to adhere, but worth a go??

Fire surrounds aren't opened and closed every day. p38 is basically just a filler and won't work for this application..... needs something with a bit of flexibility.
Buy a mini worktop cooker? That will cook a roast.
Get a large one for £70 or just buy a new oven.
Good luck OP, really crappy timing for things to break 🙁

fair comment, but as a temporary fix, surely worth a go - unless of course something more suitable turns up.
It sounds like it's properly goosed.
Nothing to get heated about though.
I've never heard of a door falling off - maybe he bought a turkey?
Bodge time. Gaffa tape some loft insulation to the front. Won't look pretty but will get the oven up to temperature and stop people burning themselves. Might need some card / ply on the outside to prevent people scratching themselves on the glass wool.
At worst you could probably nick some insulation from the loft for one night and you have gaffa of course don't you. Otherwise B&Q will be open for a bit yet.

Shut the kitchen door?
Or as above cover the oven door with something, piece of hardboard, thin mdf and gaffa tape it in place.
My oven door glass fell off a couple of years ago, I fixed it using a high temperature silicone adhesive called Silcoset 158 made by ACC Silicones.

Works fine.
thanks for the replies folks
I have resorted to a real bodge with a bit of angle iron across the base of the glass looks shite but works
The wife is a happy bunnie too 😀
As above
And bodgtastic works to the bird is in and a cooking
Stick some gorilla tape over the dog's noses to be safe.
Merry Christmas.
Pics!
