repairing pvc door seal

About half of the black rubber seal has started to come away from the edges of my PVC door and no matter what I use, I can't force it back in. Is there some special tool I could get which could help me do this?

    Strange they are fairly easy to pop back in with pressing with your thumb. You can buy new seals relatively cheap on ebay etc but you need the right one

    Well I am a bit embarrassed to admit that in the end I managed to get it back in using a very thin spoon handle. At least I did not need to get Mjolnir out(I'm trying to conserve it's batteries)
