The seal on my 1997 Frigidaire has started to shrink so the door doesn't close
good. It also appears to me that the door sags slightly - the side where the
handle is. It's one of those where you can switch sides by moving the hinges
and I wonder if something is loose. Anyway, is it common for the seal to start
shrinking after a few years? Anyone had any experience with this? Hate to
change seal and find out it was something else all along. (That's assuming I
can find the right seal anyway). My DH doesn't think the door is sagging - so
it may just be me.

I apply a little mineral oil periodically to refrig and freezer door
seals to keep them in good shape -- same with pressure cooker and other
similar gaskets.
