The quickest way to remove a rotary kiln door is to gently slide the door hinges out of the frame. This will save you hours of scrubbing the device.

You may need to unlock some doors before removing them, but this simple trick works for most ovens.

HOW TO CLEAN AN OVEN WITH A BLOCKED DOOR

To clean an oven with the door closed, be sure to open the door all the way and let it hang at the lowest point.

This exposes the metal hinges to the rest of the oven and will work on all locked versions of the device.

Now, with the door open, you can easily and safely reach the latches that lock the hinges.

Next, look for the latches on the sides of the door. They are often placed directly onto the hinges.

There, find the small piece of metal on each hinge and slide it in as far as you can.

Remember to keep two important things in mind when moving the latches. First, if the latches are in the down position when you open the door, you may need to lift the latch to unlock the door.

Second, if the latch is stuck, you can use a screwdriver to push it down.

Once that's done, you can partially close the door. Keep it steady by placing your hands evenly on either side of the door.

Carefully lift it up and close the door until it is a third closed. Now you can detach the door from the hinges.

Be sure to keep your hands steady to evenly lift and release the door from the hinges. Then pull it toward your body to move it away from the device, and move as needed to move it away.

Once the door is off the hinges, lay it on a flat surface. Now you can start cleaning. A simple mixture of white vinegar with cornstarch, baking soda, or lemon juice is sure to clean your oven well.

Let the mixture bubble in the device for 20 minutes before cleaning.

HOW TO REMOVE A DOOR WITHOUT A LOCK

To remove the door from an oven without a latch, open it until it is ¼ full. Make sure your grip is tight so the door doesn't fall all the way down.

Place your hands on either side of the door and gently pry it off the hinges.

Remove the oven door while lifting it. The hinges should slide freely out of the frame, so be sure to hold them tight.

Hold the door in a fixed position and pull back at a right angle to safely detach it from the oven frame. As before, set the door aside and clean as usual.

THE BEST CLEANING SOLUTIONS FOR AN OVEN

By blending natural ingredients in your home, you can create cleaning solutions without harsh chemicals.

Cool the mixture to room temperature and apply to the stove with a cloth. Leave the mixture on for 20 minutes while dirt and grime evaporate.

Wipe off oven cleaner to remove surface residue.

Another cleaning solution uses a cup of lemon juice with a tablespoon of cornstarch and a teaspoon of dish soap.

Mix all the ingredients together and use the same heating method as before to make a thick paste. You can put it in the oven for 20 minutes as before and clean it when it's done.
