Today I replaced the cloth covered door seals that circle around the door jamb seam.
Question: The door is very hard to close now, have to slam it into next Tuesday to get the door to latch. Does anyone else also have problems with the new stuff? Seems like the weather stripping at the hinge side is a major part of the problem.
The bottom picture shows a comparison of the new vs old rubber in cross-section. The new rubber(top in lower photo) looks 50% heavier.
Here’s the trim
Below is a cross section of the new(top) and the old(bottom). The foam rubber if the new stuff looks 50% thicker in cross section.
