I'm afraid that I cannot identify what you need from these photos. In order to determine if we have a compatible replacement, I'll need you to remove an undamaged sample and show me a clear photo of the end profile. Would that be possible?

The strip is already damaged which I have held it there with scotch tape so I cannot show undamaged. But I have taken out from other other side which is also partially damaged and few photos are attached and zoom in to get better idea. And I can also try to describe here. It is little soft rubber kind of strip in the groove on frame which makes sliding door snug from inner side of the door when closed while there is fur kind of strip you can see on frame which seals door from outer side. The inner side of the strip is the one that is broken/damaged which goes on sides and top for this Vetter wooden sliding door system. In the photos, the red arrow is showing the separated piece while part of it is still in the groove. Let me know if this helps. Thanks.

Thank you! These images are a huge help. I can confirm that we don't sell this seal, but we have a few that are similar. Honestly, it's pretty small for a door seal, so I'm wondering if you could maybe use one of our window bubble seals as an alternative.

Consider our 58-053 to start out. This looks like it installs in more or less the same way, by pushing directly into a slot in the frame, and seems to be around the same size, as well. Don't take my word for it though. You can review its dimensions below. You can also order a sample of it here to try out. That way you can be 100% sure whether it will work or not without having to commit to a purchase.
