Hi All,

We have a 1930s ill fitting door which lets the howling wind right into the house!

I have fitted draught excluders round the top and sides, but a bit stuck with the bottom of the door, where there is a 1-8mm gap.

At the moment there is a bit of flappy material stuck to the bottom that closes the gap on the inside, but it doesn't work too well since it doesn't actually press against the door frame.

I tried out the brush-style excluders but no good since air just gets in round the edges (it doesn't seal the gap between the door and frame properly because the door is slightly proud of the frame).

What I need is something like a bit of rubber fixed to the door that exerts pressure onto the door frame and hence closing the gap but I cannot find anything like this anywhere.

Anyone have any ideas?
