Replacement door bracket for the IBM PS/1 front fascia.

The original plastic bracket that supports the front flip-down door is prone to cracking or snapping after 30+ years. This replacement restores proper alignment and function while maintaining the clean factory look of the machine.

This part is designed to:

  • Fit securely into the original mounting slot

  • Support the door in both open and closed positions

  • Maintain original geometry and travel

  • Be printed without supports

Tested on an IBM PS/1 unit with successful installation and smooth operation. Part pictured printed on a Bambu Lab X1 Carbon Printer 2022 model. 

Print Settings

  • Material: PLA or PETG

  • Layer height: 0.2mm

  • Infill: 40–100% (higher infill recommended for durability)

  • No supports required

  • Print orientation: Flat on back for maximum strength

For long-term durability in warmer climates, PETG is recommended.

Files Included

STL (ready to print)

Why This Exists

Many IBM PS/1 systems survive with cosmetic wear but broken door hardware. Instead of leaving the fascia loose or removing the door entirely, this part allows collectors and restorers to keep the machine original and functional.

Designed with preservation in mind.
