FAQ: Answers to frequently asked questions

Can I use legs from other brands of refrigerators? (for example, Atlant or Indesit)?

Yes, but only if they match thread diameter, length and fastening type. For example, legs from Atlanta with thread M8x1.25 are often suitable for Turkish same years of manufacture. However, there are no universal solutions - always check the parameters. In older models Turkish (before the 2000s), threads were sometimes used M10, which are not compatible with modern refrigerators of other brands.

How much do the original legs for Biryusa cost?

The price depends on the model and region:

• For modern refrigerators (after 2015) - 800–1500 rubles per set (4 pieces).
• For old models (before 2010) - 1200–2500 rubles (due to shortage).
• Universal analogs are cheaper - 200–800 rubles for set.

The price may include delivery (from 200 to 500 rubles).

How do you understand that the legs need to be replaced?

• 🔊 The refrigerator vibrates or “buzzes” a lot during operation.
• 🚪 The door itself opens or closes with difficulty.
• 📉 One of the legs has sagged and the refrigerator is standing crooked.
• 💥 The leg is broken (cracked, plastic chipped, thread torn).
• 🔩 Adjusting the height does not help level the refrigerator.

• 🪑 Furniture adjustable supports with threads M8 or M10.
• 🔩 Bolts with nuts and washers (if the original legs were fastened with rivets).
• 🛠️ Homemade wooden or plastic inserts (last resort).

4. Contact service - craftsmen can cut new threads or install special inserts.

Do not use superglue or hot melt glue - they are not will withstand the load.
