What if there's an obstruction?

Then it won't be able to close.
The main reason my fridge door doesn't close is if there's an obstruction. So a motor won't do much (unless its unreasonably strong). It's easy enough to adjust a fridge to tilt slightly backwards so gravity closes the door by itself.
