i saw in review that the door could be opened totally, i've just received my p180b and the door can only be opened by 180 degree...is that normal?

it should open all the way so it is flush with the side panel.

..i think i know what the problem is...it seems that the ventilation hole part is attached to the upper side if the case, i look at the bottom and the bottom side seems to be ok...

anyways, when you open the door, does it make a click sound midway?

I dont know what youre doing wrong but the door opens flush with the side panal as the previous person said. It sounds like the hinge is partly stuck or something? Just push it a little more so it opens all the way. It also shouldnt make any click noise...

Open the door at about a 45 degree angle and push it back. There are actually 2 hinges. You're pushing the door so the first hinge disengages. The second hinge keeps the door attached to the bezel as you set it to the 270 degree position.

...on the top of the ventilation hole "stick"...there's the hinge i believe on the left...i have something on the right that is stuck with the upper side of the case...i think that is what's making the door unable to turn right now
