Possible Causes
Worn or compressed Cookshack door gasket, Door hinges out of alignment, Door latch not pulling door tight, Warped door from heat
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Use gloves when checking the door during a hot cook. Avoid placing your face near escaping steam or smoke.
Steps:
- 1. Visual inspection: Look for visible gaps between the door and cabinet when closed.
- 2. Paper test: Close the door on a strip of paper at several points. If the paper pulls out easily, the seal is weak in that area.
- 3. Adjust latch and hinges: Tighten hinge screws and adjust the latch to pull the door tighter if possible.
- 4. Replace gasket: If the gasket is flattened, cracked, or missing sections, replace it with a Cookshack OEM door gasket.
- 5. Check for door warping: If the door is visibly warped, contact Cookshack for replacement options.
