M-D Building Products 91892 Platinum Collection Replacement Door Weatherstrip, 84-Inch

People need to be informed that Three are needed to complete a seal for a door. Why not sell a full roll for a door?

A nice upgrade to the vinyl-covered foam insulation. This one seems much more durable and should last longer than the original builder-grade stuff did. Installs easily in the kerf space, the fins hold it in very securely. These come ONE strip per package. It takes 3 packages per door; or 5 per two doors-- IF they are average width and height. We have a wider 9' high door and need to buy an extra package to cover the additional run. I do wish this came in longer lengths so we don't have any gaps on the long edges.

Dog scratched the lower thirty inches of the original weatherstrip on back door. Bad dog! This replaced the damaged stripping easily and the end of this patch perfectly butts up to the original piece. Keeps outside air where it belongs and inside air where it belongs. High quality product.

First, surely it is ONLY for those who have a groove around the door frame for this type of insulation.Also, consider that there is one stripe of the material for one side of a standard door. You will need to buy three of those for one standard door or five for two doors (one stripe should be enough for two short upper sides, at least for my doors).So, if the above is agreeable - this is what I have to say on the product:The material is just soft enough to be somewhat compressible, and part of the compressibility is in the "coiled" construction itself. So I expect it to last better than soft sponges do. The big deal for me is the possibility do adjust thickness of insulation by easily inserting a thin and cheap sponge stripes sold in any hardware store in rolls of various thickness and width. This is a big deal of advantage if the distance left for insulation between the door frame and the door is not the same all around. I cut from the sticky soft sponge stripes narrow stripes to fit the inner side of the insulating "coil" and inserted just in those places where I needed better contact. Easy, quick. Also, you may take that sponge out just unfolding and then re-folding the folds.Do not expect to double the thickness this way, but for some adjustments, when and if your situation requires it, this is a great product I was looking for. True, now is June and I just installed it - so the big test is far ahead. But, on the other hand, I see what it is and the actual result depends on construction you have, on the application of the right product for the situation AND then on the quality of the product. I just removed a very nice different type of insulation material, which was of good quality, but not reaching far enough, thus doing a very bad job. Just a couple of millimeters gap - and a draft in Winter is guaranteed... So, assess you situation and see if this is right for you.

Source was very good. I ordered the wrong part.

Exactly what I needed to replace the weather stripping my dogs managed to tear up. I had the old stripping out and the new strip installed in just a couple of minutes, and now my door is all sealed up again!

Bottom is original and top is a portion of the new. Was super easy to install. The color was a little different but actually matched the door better. Extremely happy.

Worked perfectly. Excellent replacement for worn out weather stripping.
