Hotpoint Mistral 8596 plus fridge freezer?

I need to replace a the central hinge which has sheared in two. I have the replacement part but need advice as to how to align and refit the doors and the new hinge. it seems quite difficult to fit the doors without dismantling the fridge, should I disassemble the top or the bottom of the fridge unit?

Remove the lower door and hinge. Ask a friend to hold the upper door while you unscrew and replace the middle hinge. Replace the lower door and hinge. Takes about 10 minutes
