Said door assembly is characterised in that each of said hinge (3), lock (4) and door plug (5, 225) is mounted only on such frame portion (1, 221) such that they can be removed from the door assembly independently on one another. A method for reversibly mounting a door assembly on a front loading laundry treating machine (19) is also disclosed.
