What is the difference between a door threshold and a weather bar?

A door threshold is fitted at the base of the doorway to reduce water and draughts at the sill area, while a weather bar (often on the door leaf) helps deflect rain and supports a tighter seal at the bottom edge.

How do I choose the right seal profile for my door frame?

Check whether the door opens inward or outward, measure the frame groove or rebate, and match the correct seal profile and size for consistent compression and an effective draught-proof seal.

Q: How can I stop draughts and water ingress under my door?

Fit a stormguard threshold plate or compression seal to create a secure, weatherproof barrier.
