My freezer needs a new doorseal (is that the correct word for the

It looks like the existing seal is attached to the door by means of
double
sided tape (with glue?).

No, it just appears that way after years of gunk. Most commonly, the
seal is held against the door by the strip magnet that is inside the
plastic. There are sheet metal screws that fasten it to the door.

Just remembered, there's also a steel strip for each edge. The screws
tighten on the strip which in turn presses the seal to the door.

I'm sorry, but my doorseal realy has no screws. It's attached by double
sided adhesive tape.

Don't you think you should have given the brand name and model when
you first posted, so Nexus wouldn 't have wasted his effort and time?

And even here you don't give it.- Hide quoted text -

Replacing a door seal is not complicated. I wouldn't take the old seal
off all at once though. Remove the upper third, clean the inner door,
attach the new seal, then the middle, and finally the bottom third.
