Install door gaskets

Before installation

• Remove the seal from the packaging immediately upon receipt.

• Always hold the seal by the corners to prevent the corners from tearing out and/or magnet breakage.

• Place the seal unfolded.

• Allow the seal to get used to the ambient temperature.

• Heat any wrinkles (caused by transport or storage) evenly with a hairdryer to remove them.

• Carefully remove the seal to be replaced.

• Thoroughly clean the door and cabinet perimeter where the seal closes. Use a clean cloth and a professional cleaning agent.

• Before installing, disinfect the door and cabinet perimeter where the seal closes with an approved disinfectant. Allow the product to work for 30 seconds and wipe off with a clean, dry cloth.

The installation

• Place the corners of the seal first, then the short ones and then the long ones sides, to prevent the seal from stretching (getting longer).

• When pressing seals all around, check whether the impression is properly in the groove so that the seal is flat.

• Where necessary, use a hair dryer to remove any folds and/or cracks.

• Any processed magnetic strips have a less strong attraction immediately after installation; it takes several weeks before the magnet has developed its maximum attraction.

• If a corner tears during installation, this can be repaired with superglue.

If the gasket does not close properly, check the following points

• Have the profile type and dimensions been ordered correctly?

• Is the seal all around properly secured in the impression groove and flat (blow-dried)?

• Is the door, drawer or lid bent or crooked?

• Is there a counter magnet in the cabinet edge?

• Does the seal pinch on the hinge side? If so, readjust the hinges.
