How do I adjust the door

There is gap between my laundry door and the door frame. But it’s only at the lower section of the door. I have the weatherproof seal on the door frame and the door closes fine. But there’s a gap because I can see light passing through. What I can do to fix the gap?

Re: How do I adjust the door

Hello @redcamper 

 

It appears that only 3/4 of your weather seal is actually making contact with your door. If the door is not off balance and is not hitting any of the corners when it is being used, I recommend leaving your door in its current position and just adding more weather seal for ease of repair. I suggest using Moroday White Self Adhesive Weather Seal on the bottom right-hand side of the old door seal only. There is no need to cover the entire area with a new seal. The new weather seal will easily cover the gap, and you'll have a fully sealed door. 

 

My best advice is to wipe the area with isopropyl alcohol before putting the new weather seal beside the old weather seal.

 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
