Rubber insulation strip on hab door coming away (1 Viewer)

[DDJC]

See pic.

I don't see the logic of the 'join' being at the bottom where it is most likely to get scuffed as you go in and out. I've tried a couple of glues, and clamps, no luck.

Anyway, what do people reckon is the best glue/method to fix this? I keep tripping on it. Does it need replacing?

The join is at the bottom to let any moisture out (and prevent it getting in). Our van has a small metal strip to clamp the seal against the door frame - a bit like a carpet threshold thingy so it may be worth trying to find something along those lines.

Assuming it's a hollow "tube" (the bit above the spring wired flange) push and glue a splice into it, eg a piece of rubber tube. This should hold the two ends together and make sure the wired flange is compressed enough to grip the door frame

That looks like the very fellow for me!
Any idea where to get some of this strip?
