[VAC] Re: Fridge Gaskets



Actually, the best place to get replacement fridge gaskets is an
appliance or appliance parts store.  Take in a section of gasket and
find one close.  They have the kind that is captured by screw-on
flanges, the push-on kind, and the adhesive kind.  It won't be one piece
pre-made as it is sold by the foot, or in some cases will be the size of
a home refrigerator, but you cut the four lengths you need out of it,
angle-cut with a 45 deg notch at the corners, install vinyl tubing in
these corners to add strength - also notched. Seal the corner up with
matching colored silicone sealant.
