How To Adjust The Outside Steel Dooe’S Bottom Weather Decal?

This tutorial demonstrates how to replace weather stripping on a steel exterior door using magnetic replacement seals. The process involves removing nails or screws, prying the stripping off with a putty knife, measuring the door’s width, purchasing a new weather strip, marking the frame’s length on the strip, and attaching it to the door as directed on the product’s packaging. Magnetic weather stripping is preferred for steel doors due to its more secure seal. If your door is not made of metal, self-adhesive weather stripping, like foam tape, is the simplest to install DIY.

A weatherstripping kit and door sweep can help prevent energy-wasting leaks around door jambs. Old weather stripping is easy to replace and doesn’t require much tools or DIY experience. To perform the replacement, remove the old door bottom and cut a new sweep to length if needed. Slide on the new door sweep and apply adhesive or caulk if necessary.

The task involves removing the old seal, cleaning the area, measuring and cutting the new seal, and installing it. It is essential to choose the best type of weather stripping for your specific needs and to follow the instructions on the product’s packaging.
