Hey folks, moved into my house about 2 years ago. It has a jotul classic nr 4 multi fuel stoves. It has been a bit neglected, no fire bricks left inside and the door seal is s thing of the past, but it's great at heating the house with it's back boiler that heats the radiators. Few days agi I've noticed the front panel has come away from the body. The pins have come through the lugs. I can push it back into place but the pin sits flush with the lugs. Was Trying to fit a washer with a slot cut into it to try and keep it in place but there's not enough of the head sticking through to catch it. Wondered if anyone had any ideas how to fix this or am I looking at a new stove? Cheers guys.

We’re it me, I’d get a new stove. I’d be wondering what the next thing to fail would be and would that create a safety problem. Plus I imagine running a stove without a proper door gasket is already asking for trouble.
