This hinge and handle kit fits the Primo Oval Junior, pre-2015 and post-2015 alike. That is genuinely useful: on the Large and the X-Large you have to know which era of grill you own before you can order hardware, and on the Junior you do not.
The kit is the hinge, the bands that wrap the ceramic dome and base, and the handle. The Junior is the Primo people move around most, and moving a kamado puts load through exactly these parts, since the handle and bands are what everybody grabs when the grill has to go somewhere. Hardware on a portable grill leads a harder life than hardware on one that never leaves the patio.
Change it when the dome stops closing properly, when the handle develops play, or when the bands no longer hold the shell firmly. A dome that rests unevenly against the base leaks, and on a small firebox a leak shows up quickly as a grill that will not settle at a low temperature.
Made for the Primo Oval Junior ceramic charcoal grill, including the Primo Oval Junior All-In-One package. While the bands are loose, the sealing rims are accessible, so it is a good time to fit the Primo replacement gasket for the Oval Junior 200. The wider parts list is in Primo grill accessories.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The Junior is the one size where a single kit covers both generations, so you do not need to date your grill before ordering. That is not true further up the range: the Oval Large and Oval X-Large each have separate pre-2015 and post-2015 kits that will not fit the other era.
A hinge, a set of bands and a handle. The bands clamp around the ceramic dome and base, the hinge joins them so the dome can swing, and the handle is what you open it by. All three arrive together, which keeps the assembly the same age rather than mixing one new part with two worn ones.
No. It is sized to the Junior shell and nothing else. A Large owner needs one of the two era-specific Large kits, for instance the Post-2015 Oval Large hinge and handle kit, and has to know which generation their grill belongs to before buying. The Junior's single-kit convenience does not extend to the larger Ovals.
Check where the movement is coming from first. If the band the handle mounts to has loosened, tightening the handle alone will not hold for long. If the dome is also sitting off-centre or closing unevenly, the hardware as a whole has had enough and replacing the set is the more durable answer.
Use the handle to open the dome, not to pick the grill up. Lifting a loaded kamado by the lid is how people crack ceramic. Move a Junior by its cart or its stand, with the dome closed and latched down, and treat the handle as what you open the grill with rather than what you pick it up with.
No, but do it cold and do it with help. Once the bands are slack there is nothing holding the ceramic together, and even a Junior's dome is heavier and more awkward than it looks. Reassemble with everything loose, square the dome to the base, then tighten down.
I absolutely love my Coyote gas grill! The quality is excellent, it looks beautiful, and I’m very happy with my purchase.
I also want to give a special thank you to Ryan at Northwoods Grills. He was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. Before my grill even arrived, he took the time to help me with measurements and answered all of my questions to make sure everything would fit properly. He was always very attentive, patient, friendly, and easy to communicate with. His customer service really made a difference and made the whole experience so much easier for me.
It’s not often that you receive this level of personal attention and customer service. I truly appreciate all of Ryan’s help and would absolutely recommend Northwoods Grills. Great product and outstanding customer service!
Best pricing available for the product (checked all other on line retailers), and Ryan provided excellent responsiveness during the sales process. Loved dealing directly with the owner vs a sales person.
Delivery was completed within a week of the order and Ryan stayed in touch with consistent follow-up to ensure the products met my expectations.
Will recommend to friends / others looking for a high-end built in grill and matching cabinets.
Great experience with Northwood Grills! I purchased a hood from them and it was delivered quickly and exactly as expected. Ryan was great to work with—helpful, responsive, and made the whole process easy. Highly recommend!
Good sink. Came with all parts as described.
Excellent service and fast shipping!
Don’t know how i ever cooked without this before. Love the char this locks in the meat every time. May add a second one to the other end of the grill.
Great quality.
I was caught in a bind with a DIFFERENT provider, and Ryan was able to get me exactly what I needed, he reached out to the manufacturer for me to confirm specs and had my shipment mailed out same day. If you’re in the market for any outdoor kitchen needs, look no further than Northwoods!
Great service, grill came within a week.
Wouldn’t order from anyone else!
