Leaking door on outdoor kitchen

Hi Everyone,
We just bought a 2018 Freedom Elite 29 FE and after our first rainstorm noticed quite a bit of water inside our outdoor kitchen area. The seal seems small for the size of the door. Has anyone else experienced this and do they make a better seal for the door? Any help would be appreciated!

Have same coach and had same problem. The cheep seal the idiots used simply will not work. The way the door closes, it requires an "L" shaped seal. Good auto supply store has seals and you can get a good adhesive to complete the install.

Steele Rubber products makes all sort of RV rubber seals. RV Upgrades also carries almost every rubber seal you need.
