UPVC door seal -can't find exact match

[steveo2012]

Hi all.

The two UPVC doors on my house have started to leak when it rains. Both look as if they were fitted some time before I moved in about a year ago, and the seals have become frayed in places. I've been looking for a match for the old seal:



The width is 4mm for the part that fits into the door's groove. I've tried to find an exact match for this seal, but no luck. The StormGuard seal is too large for the groove (5mm, if I recall), and the nearest alternative I can locate is this:



Does anyone know of a match for the old seal? Or, if I fit the new one (which lacks the flap on the side), will this work?

Thanks for any comments or help.

These guys make gaskets and will make one to suit your spec but seeing as you'll only want enough to do 2 doors this is probably out of the question but they will probably have what you need anyway, they keep loads of stock and have moulds from previous customers

Thanks, that's great. I'll give them a try. In fact, I think I see the relevant gasket on the front page.

Ebay is your best option to be honest you can buy it per meter and free postage. Euroseal is another option as posted above but might have a minimum order amount as we have found in the past with them.
