On average...what would our long time burners say is the average life of rope gaskets? Will I know when its time to replace before air leaks?

On my 5-year old BK, I've tightened the door catch some when starting to get some slippage on the dollar-bill test, but now, it passes everywhere but between the hinges. I figure that means the gasket is worn out, because tightening the catch can't really change how tight it is on the hinge side.
I am assuming there is some adjustment in the door latch, but I don't know your stove.
