Why are longer screws required to be installed in the hinges of the door?

typically the framing around a door jamb is doubled (two 2x4's instead of one are used) to account for the additional forces of the door swinging and slamming shut.
the longer screws allow the hinges to attach through both 2x4's.

Remove the counter. Counters are usually installed with just a few screws, and the arborite is easy to get out. You'll likely have to re-caulk the edges, but that's going to be a LOT easier than trying to remove parts of the hardwood floor. If the countertops are granite, hire a contractor. The stone is very heavy and is likely to break when you lift it out.

How do you replace dryer door switch 3406102?
I removed the switch today 6 July 08. There were two screws in the back of the washer attached to the hinges which allow the top of the dryer to open. Two screws that hold the lint trap to the inside of the dryer and two screws that hold the dryer door switch. After you remove all of the screws you can lift the dryer top from the front and it will rotate on the hinges in the back. Then you can unplug the switch and plug in a new one. Hope this helps.
