<p>The disclosure involves a method for defrosting an inner door (10) of a laboratory freezer (11) having (a) a plurality of inner doors (10), each closing a separate compartment (19), and (b) an outer door (21) covering the inner doors (10). The method includes the steps of opening the outer door (21), removing at least one inner door (10), closing the outer door (21) and defrosting the removed inner door (10). In that way, an inner door (10) is defrosted without disturbing the contents of the freezer (11) and, particularly, the contents of the compartment (19) from which the door (10) is removed. Optionally, the freezer user may keep a spare inner compartment door (10) on hand and use it to immediately replace the removed door (10) before closing the outer door (21). Door defrosting steps and a new hinge mechanism (43) facilitating quick door removal are also disclosed.</p> |
