Roper Refrigerator Gasket & Seal

I purchased a freezer gasket + key// from appliancepartspros.com //easy to order. I did not need to lock up my freezer but thought it might help the gasket seat (good thought). To replace gasket I started at top of door, wow, I should have started at bottom. Hated laying on my "belly" to screw in gasket. Ok, I am 77 years old but got the job done. All went okay until I had to close the door, the door would not stay shut. Key: I locked the door for a week. New seal is settling in, freezer is... Read more

When I took the door off the fridge... Read more

Loosened the screws, removed the old gasket, then placed the new gasket one corner and worked my way around the... Read more

I called Appliance Parts Pros and gave them the model number of my refrigerator. They promptly advised me exactly what part I needed, told me the price and cost of shipping. I agreed and received my part within 2 days. I watched the video that told me exactly how to complete repair. It was very simple. The only thing different was that there was a metal strip holding the gasket in place. Removing it was no problem. When I installed it I had to loosen the screws? nuts? slip the gasket... Read more
