How to Replace Kenmore Refrigerator Freezer Door Gaskets

Kenmore refrigerators and freezers have a gasket that surrounds the door frames. The gasket helps seal the door, keeping in cold air and keeping out warm air. The gasket is one solid piece that is manufactured to fit securely along the freezer door frame. Purchase a gasket for your specific Kenmore model to be sure it will fit properly and can be installed correctly.
