A refrigerator door construction and method of assembly wherein an inner door liner and a sealing gasket are secured to the inner surface of the door by a plurality of retainer strips. The retainer strips are provided with locking tabs extending through slots in the door surface and define a plurality of retaining surfaces for positioning the retainer strips selectively in a first, partial installed position and a final fully installed position wherein the retainer strips clamp the edge of the door liner and gasket to the inner door surface. The clamping action is effected by a camming of the retainer strips as a result of movement thereof generally parallel to the door surface. The strips are deflected in the first position to accept the gasket for facilitated installation. Threaded fasteners may be used to secure the retaining strips in the second fully installed position.
