If you tried moving the striker and your doors are still rattling try these easy fixes. They can make a big difference and literally take 2-3 minutes to complete.

1. Open all the doors. Put on a pair of jersey gloves and fit all your fingers into the gasket on the body. Then pull it back slightly going around it a few times with your fingers in the grove. Do the same thing with the gaskets that go around the doors.

2. Take a scotch tape and wrap in around the striker several times. Use polyester tape because it lasts longer. This takes up the gap in the striker from use.

I found that these things really help and usually last a month or two. When they start to rattle repeat the process.

Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A GREAT NEW YEAR

Are there kits with new door moulding you can buy? Has anyone bought one and what is your opinion please. Does it solve this issue?
