This is a tough call. There should be 5 nuts behind the door cap.
All 5/16" wrench on "T" nuts that do slide inside the channel.
I removed the whole thing from the door, recovered it, and spent a night
getting the nuts back on, 1 is impossible, the others are not too bad
thru the cutouts in the door.
Get yourself one of those ratcheting box wrenches, they work great on
the nuts.
