The cloth tape lasted about two months last summer, which was still about 100 open/close cycles on the door. The tape will cut a little where it is tight tolerance, and will stay snug where it was loose before. This also gives you a solid close when you swing the door shut. I tried electrical tape first, but it only lasts about 20-30 open/close cycles. It only takes 3 or 4 minutes to replace the old tape with a new wrap, so it is a quick fix that only costs pennies to do. Not permanent, but very easy. The cloth tape works very good.
