We've got really old timber framed double glazing. It's still in good condition but I wanted to replace the draught seals (are they called flipper seals??) as the existing ones are looking a bit worn and squished.
I got replacement just for one window to see how I went but for the life of me, I can't get the new stuff to go into the groove in the window frame.
The old stuff (which I've had to put back in because I can't get the new stuff in) just pops in no problem. Is there a technique? Does the hard edge on these seals come in different sizes or something?
This is the type of seal I'm talking about.
