Relacing Door Gasket
1. Open the door to a 90˚ angle. Using two people, lift the door leaf from the hinges and place it horizontally
across two saw bucks or similar supports. (CAUTION: When removing door leaf from door section use
caution not to dislodge the hinge pins.) See page 17 if this occurs.
2. Start at the bottom of the door removing the old gasket. Remove it by pulling it from the groove.
3. Lay the new gasket on the door leaf. Begin by pushing the corners in place.
4. Push the gasket into the door along the top, working from each corner toward the middle.
5. Start at the top of the door and work toward the bottom, pressing the gasket into the groove.
6. The gasket will be longer than the door leaf. Take a pair of scissors and cut the gasket off to match the length
of the door leaf.
7. Slide the magnet out of the gasket and cut 1/2" to 3/4" off the magnet.
8. Push the magnet in place. Check the top corner to make sure that the gasket meets at the top.
9. Place the vinyl plug in the bottom of the gasket and glue, heat seal, or staple in place. This is to prevent the
magnet from falling out.
10. Using two people, place the door back on its hinges.
11. Check the door for proper seal on all sides.
