Refurb bathroom cabinet metal edge

I have had an IKEA mirrored bathroom cabinet for quite a few years. It is perfect apart from the metal tape / edging has come off along the bottom of one door because of lack of ventilation. It has done pretty well really but expensive to replace. Can anyone recommend some sort of metal strip or edging that I could replace it with?

Have you tried getting in touch with Ikea? I would also be concerned about lack of ventilation in the bathroom as I suspect the cabinet will be the least of your worries if you get damp everywhere.
Different types of edging on Amazon that might fit https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=metal+edging+strips&adgrpid=55886422031&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIptexqOjq4gIVipztCh1HUwWJEAMYASAAEgJvj_D_BwE&hvadid=259040992939&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=1006742&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1o1&hvqmt=b&hvrand=6206912590596921763&hvtargid=aud-613328383159%3Akwd-303620010423&hydadcr=20963_1721596&!!!!!googhydr-21&ref=pd_sl_5lvsrxyql0_b

Thank you and sorry for the delayed response. The cabinet has done pretty well to get through a decade of teenagers leaving the doors and windows closed with no ventilation. Now that I have no teens in the house the damp cabinet problem has miraculously vanished0
