This ref the "rubbers" that seal 2G units on an internally glazed door. I've changed the 28mm units from patterned to clear glass made up by a local place.
To measure up I hooked out the rubbers, removed the internal plastic beads with a paint scraper and measured the glass. I then refitted the glass, refitted the beads inside and lastly, refitted the rubbers which tbh was a pita.
The new units made, I again hook out the rubbers, then take out the internal beads. New unit fitted and trims in, rubbers last. What a pig, ten times worse than when I first did it! I've made a hash of if and in places the rubbers are irretrievably distorted. When I removed / refitted the second time the ambient temperature was warmer. I even used some silicone spray to help ease things in and worked my way along pushing the rubbers in with a screwdriver. New rubbers are the only option.
What did I do wrong?
I'm also having trouble matching the profile despite having ordered a sample pack off eBay:
