Parts for Kenmore 106.8634021 (1068634021, 106 8634021): Door Parts

This freezer door gasket forms an airtight seal between the door and cabinet to keep cold air in and humid air out. Replacing a worn gasket helps maintain temperature, reduce frost, and improve efficiency. What it does:

• Seals the perimeter of the freezer door to prevent air leaks
• Helps maintain stable freezer temperature and proper freezing performance
• Reduces warm air infiltration that leads to frost and moisture
• Common symptoms of a failing gasket: tears or warping, frost along door edges, condensation around the door, poor sealing or door popping open, longer run times

• 1 freezer door gasket

• Disconnect power before servicing; open the door and clear the work area
• Warm the new gasket in hot water or with low heat to relax folds; clean the sealing surfaces
• If your model uses a screw-on retainer, loosen screws to remove the old gasket and install the new one evenly; if it press-fits, seat the gasket lip fully into the channel, aligning corners
• After installation, verify an even seal all around; adjust hinges/leveling if needed and use low heat to smooth waves; test with a dollar-bill test

This refrigerator door gasket seals the fresh food compartment door to restore an airtight closure. A proper seal helps keep cold air in, limit moisture intrusion, and support stable temperatures and efficiency.

• Creates a tight seal between the fresh food door and cabinet
• Helps maintain interior temperature and reduce energy loss
• Limits condensation and frost near the door opening
• Worn, torn, or misshapen gaskets may cause warm spots, sweating, or doors that won't close fully

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing.
• Pull the inner lip from the door retainer to remove; some models require loosening liner screws hidden under the gasket edge.
• Warm the new gasket (warm water or gentle heat) to relax folds, then press the lip fully into the channel.
• Close the door and check for uniform contact; adjust hinges or re-tighten liner screws as needed.
