Hello all! I purchased my hoise 2 years ago and have been using the old Dover stove that came with it as my main heating source. I love the stove, and it does a great job, but as I've been becoming more familiar with it I realize it may not be that safe because it doesn't have a gasket and there is a gap in one of the drafts where an ember could escape and the other draft is corroded shut. That having been said, I've been searching to find new doors or someone to rebuild it and I'm not having any luck. Any help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I can't figure out how to get the picture to this site. It has 2 doors that are bifold and they have no groove for a gasket. I actually want to replace the doors with something safer, not the same thing. Is that possible?
It's quite unlikely that the doors are replaceable with other than the same parts.
