Don't worry. We all make mistakes. On a scale from one to ten (what with
lots of advertising junk and 'this message has bounced' garbage) this
doesn't even register.

Use something to keep them lubricated. Vaseline is OK, but there are
special sticks of silicone based gunk you can buy for this purpose. Works a
treat and makes the door rubbers last longer! (I realize there's plenty of
stuff in this reply for some lewd remarks...)
