i added a second 'spade' clip on the top of the door next to the existing one, seems to do the trick.

Hi,
This is what we added except in plastic:
Sugatsune 1-15/16" x 3/8" Ball Tension Catch
Model: BCT-50
What model fridge? Maybe check with manuf of unit to see if they have a part/latch etc that doesn't require drilling. I admit i wasn't crazy about drilling it either.

Its OK to drill around the door of your fridge. The only thing in there is foam. All the electrical is in the bottom and the cold plates are visible in the fridge itself. Most everything runs up the rear of the unit.
