ABSTRACT:
An adjustable counterbalance system is provided for an appliance cabinet having a door hinged to the cabinet for movement from a closed to an opened position. A counterbalance spring includes one end connected to the door and another end connected to a movable bracket which is mounted adjacent the lower edge of the cabinet wall. The bracket includes a lead screw which is positioned on the interior of the cabinet wall and which is accessible through an access opening in the front wall of the cabinet. Movement of the bracket toward and away from the door adjusts the tension in the spring.
