Electrolux Fridge Door Seals

My Electrolux fridge door seal has seen better days, it is still working ok but could do with renewing.
I have looked allover the net to find a replacement without success, so I have sent a request to jandi.
Has anybody changed one of these or know where they can be purchased reasonably?

There are universal fridge door seal kits on eBay.
It might also be possible to use something like the draught excluding compressible adhesive strips. Maybe cutting away the failing seal but leaving a flat surface for the adhesive backing.

There are several companies who make bespoke fridge and freezer seals and who also stock a range of seal sections.

Seal-it are one. It might pay you to give them a ring to see if they can either help or steer you in the right direction if they can't. It may well be that most of their trade is in commercial kit, but the only truly daft question is the one you never ask.

It might be an idea to take a couple of pictures to mail them in case they need help in identifying possible replacements.

I think they are the same as Dometic? can't find seals for them either.

Two other sites have similar topics ............ with similar results ie a new door

I read somewhere (can't remember where now been on loads of sites) that there is a magnetic strip in the seal that helps hold it tight closed?

Thanks for your suggestions.
There seems to be plenty of people supplying the straight seal but of course you then have to cut, angle and join the corners.
I have had another look at the door and there doesn't seem to be anyway of separating the interior moulded white liner from the door frame and the exterior wood panel, I think it is probably pressed together and glued which probably explains why you can't get the seals separately and you need to buy the doors complete with the seal.
I have found a new door complete with seal at £281.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will wait to see what Jandi have quoted then investigate the new Thetford fridge that will fit.
