I have 2 x Flexaret V1s, one works but leaks light. The other has a better film door but is not a goer.

How do you remove the Door from the Flexaret V1. Does it require a tool or does it just unscrew?

Also in the door is a Gap, Should it have a foam seal in it?

Thanks for any help.

There is a silk seal at the bottom of the door near the hinge.

To unlock the door remove the two screws with ''leather'' tops on both sides of the hinge. You can then push or unscrew the metall shaft inside the hinge.
