This DIY repair guide and video shows you how to replace a refrigerator door gasket that presses into a groove or track around the edge of the door on a French-door refrigerator.
The door gasket, often called a door seal, seals the gap around the door to keep the cold air in and the warm air out. Signs that the refrigerator gasket needs to be replaced include excessive frost buildup and reduced cooling. Replace the gasket if it’s worn, cracked or torn.
This repair procedure works for replacing refrigerator and freezer door gaskets in many Kenmore, Frigidaire, LG and Samsung refrigerators.
