i sold osburn for years, not anymore
that is a very decent model, some of thier others like the 1800-2200 were a hassle to keep the door sealed on, 3 piece glass looks cool( i guess)
but is hard to gasket, even for me...

other than that, no customer complaints!

I have already had that problem, after just one small fire. How can this be fixed?

your stove has a flat one piece design, gasketing should be prettty easy to install/ maintain. sure its no avalon, but its door design is fine. its toe 2200=1800 w/ issues

gasketing,
find the approrpiate sized gasket(consult your manual) keep in mind that gaskets have different densities and may need to be streched or compacted to get the proper thickness.
i always dry fit the gasket to be sure it is a nice snug fit, but not impossible to close door before cementing.

keep in mind gaskets compress more and more over time, it should be snug when new

luck
