Zoltan,

There is a strip of metal to which the rubber strip is attached to. They are
held in place with screws which can be accessed via holes in the door jamb.
Pop out those small nylon plugs near the door hinges. That will allow you to
see and access the screws that hold them in place. IIRC one is a Phillips
head screw and the others are hex head.
