Mine had the weird bend at the top too. NO BIG DEAL... all u need to do is center the assembly on your door (tip: line up to old screw holes). Install the closest screw above and below the assembly. Then work your way up or down screwing from the center out. Leave the first few screws snug but not tight and it will help it line itself up with proceeding screws. Then slightly bend the piece back where the bend is but do it softly and don't hulk it. Then hold it in place and tap it hard with a soft object, I used a rubber coated tape measure, Straightened right up. Then screw it and it will suck it tight. Super easy and the bend is normal. Added 35 seconds of work. I have included a picture of the area that was bent and it looks perfect. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fit and Easy to Install *by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on 23 July 2020* The Andersen Fwh68 Hinged Door - (Active Door Panel) 3-point Lock Mechanism (1988 to Present) arrived in a long narrow cardboard box and had with a slight bow in it just as others reviewers have described. After examining the part I believe it probably comes from the factory that way and may not be due to handling. I placed it on my marble kitchen island and gently straightened it out leaving some curve in it to help pull it tight to the down when fastened to the door with the seven or eight screw required. I lubricated it a little before installing. It's ten minute job taking your time and fits perfectly, works very freely, a operate much easier than the old one. I'm very pleased with this product! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on 20 April 2023* This product was found obviously by the part number on my door. It worked perfect, was so easy to install. Thank you Amazon for carrying just everything, stuff you don't know that you need! ## Frequently Bought Together - Andersen Fwh68 Hinged Door - (Active Door Panel) 3-point Lock Mechanism (1988 to Present) - Andersen Spindle, 3-3/4 Long, Frenchwood Hinged Door - 2579830 - Andersen Hinged Door Lock Actuator --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/284368324-andersen-fwh68-hinged-door-active-door-panel-3-point-lock](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/284368324-andersen-fwh68-hinged-door-active-door-panel-3-point-lock) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
