Replacing a fridge/freezer seal

We are looking to re-seal our fridge and freezer as the doors seem to pop open every now and then.

Phone 'Sealafridge'. They come to you and Ive only ever had good service and price from them. Had a fridge door done about 8 years ago and it's still good as gold.

What brand of fridge is it! Easy to do your self if a common brand and notyears old.

Unless it is a very tidy and less than 10 yrs old, i would suggest that you replace it. I don't think you will get change from $150 if you do both doors, unless you can do it yourself. [not an easy job]

If you can give me aproduct code, model and serial number off the label on the fridge I maybe able toget you a price.If you can just pull the old seal out a bit and see if it is screwed on or pushed in would also be helpful. Not hard to replace.

We bought ours from Appliance Repairs in Glen Innes. It pushed in. Took a bit of mucking around but so much cheaper than getting a bloke in as we are rural.

Ha. Don't bother with Seal-a-fridge. I rang them three times and they rang to confirm day and time three times but never turned up. Never rang to apologise.never heard from them again. They quoted $190 for seals and installation, but in the end I got a seal from a lovely guy here on Trademe and hubby installed them easily. Think I paid $20-30 including postage. This was for a very elderly kelvinator chest freezer.

I can't remember where we ended up getting our freezer seal from. The freezer was already old when we bought it over 35 years ago.Seal a fridge didn't service In'gill any more, so we got it from a website. Not expensive, and posted to us with clear instructions.We had a laugh, because the first instruction said to lay it out on a sunny driveway to warm and soften. The day it arrived, we had a huge frost, and the ground was frozen solid.
