Hinge side sticking

Apply powder if necessary

Apply some talc or baby powder to the seal where it is sticking. This will prevent the new seal from catching.

Flatten Seal with screwdriver

Use a screwdriver to flatten the seal as you close it.

This will allow the seal to flatten. Leave the door shut for around 2 hours after doing this to allow the seal time to mould into the squashed up state on a permanent basis.
