Repair a shipping container door seal by first proving where the seal has failed, then replacing the damaged gasket section or complete gasket with a profile and attachment method approved for that door. Clean and prepare the retainer, form watertight corners as specified, and verify even compression after the door is aligned. Caulk smeared over a torn or hardened gasket is not a durable substitute.
