FIX LIGHT GAPS AROUND DOORS! (Easy Trick For Gaps Bottom Of Door / Corner Seal Pads / Weatherstrip)

Thanks, I always wondered why they were there, and if they were supposed to be removed and someone forgot 😊

Thank you, thank you, thank you! After watching this I went to HD and bought several packages for a poorly fitting door. Theses wedges work perfectly going half way up the door. Finally, a solution to a long standing problem. A HUGE thank you!

Do you have tips for weather proofing a patio glass door over winter months. Thanks

As a home inspector, I find light gaps in 95% of homes, even new ones. No idea why door installers don't add them as standard procedure!

Thank you! This was a very helpful video and straight to the point! I gave you a thumbs up plus the comment!

Thanks for recommending using two, one atop of the other; or two using it for additional thickness. Biggest problem I have is on M+D 51501, I am having a terrible time pealing off the white cover over the adhesive part. Odd & time consuming.

Cool tip, thanks !!

Awesome fix

where can these be purchased not at the big boxes

great tip. thx!!!👏

Mufht be an idea to prep it first. Remove peely oaint and scrub it up and repainr. That's one nasty looking doorway.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

If a job's worth doing, it's worth doing properly. The door needs work, not a shim.

Rock star! Thanks.

Just yesterday (5Nov2023) I was sending photos to my brother on what kind of weather-stripping to use on 2 sets of doors in my new house. First I had noticed the light and then discovered the breeze that was coming in. And since I'm not in a warm part of the country, that's going to be a problem in the coming days. I am gonna be heading to the store to get either those wedges or a roll of adhesive weather-stripping, since I want to ensure the whole gap is blocked.
Thanks. Now a subscriber.

Changed the weather stripping but the strip is showing sunlight just under the lock….. weather stripping is on the tracks as well… any recommendations

So helpful. Thank you.

Where do you get them?

what about sliding doors

I have a light gap that runs vertically at the top of my front door. Might give these a try. Thank you

Thank you!!

My gosh people. This isn't a fix. If your door is that bad fix the framing. You need a new door.

Thanks for this tip as was going to try and alter the door.

Thanks 😊👍👏

Thank you so much. I’m going to find these and fix my drafty doors.

Forget the foam wedge! The whole door frame is rotten and needs to be replaced!

Hm? How's that better than a 2"-3" length of regular weatherstripping?
Even at 2bux a pop, it's still way more pricey than a snipped of leftover weatherstripping, no?

Great idea. Thanks.

VERY helpful! Thank you!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I am a widow and am trying to learn every trick I can. You are such a blessing!!!!

I just installed a prehung door and had this issue. I was moving the jabs around trying to get rid of the gap… the door came with these wedges and I didn’t even think about using those! Very helpful, thank you

I never new these existed before, your videos are awesome you get right to the point without all the useless chat that some have. I just looked and HD carries them under $5

Major remodel about five years ago very well done... except the beautiful front door has that light break in the bottom corner. I find spiders in the bathroom shower floor in the summer/ fall. I'm hoping this easy fix will solve the problem. Thanks again .

The ones on my newer garage side door got smoodged up. I had to remove them. I did not know I could buy them. Thanks

Awesome idea Thanks

Where’s the link to the product?

Man. First I replaced lower portion that was rotted after watching your video. Now I look for a video on these little guys and there you are again. Man appreciate your content

I've tried that and still problems do I need purchase a new door

I know you posted this years ago but it I've been dealing with random creatures getting inside driving me fucking insane and while I kinda knew what to do this helped direct me specifically to a fix

How about mice chewing it ?? I need something like this by mice resistant

Thank you so much. I didn't know these existed! You're the man!

Thanks, followed your instructions and it addressed the issue...

Great info. I have that problem with my front door. These foam barriers are perfect and reasonably priced. Thanks for telling us.

Very helpful. Thank you

Thank you my friend for this video I’m more of a watch and do guy and you are good the way you explain things appreciate the way you can do that helped me out a lot with the side door.Thank you man for your help

I bought a 4 pack, can I do all 4 corners or is it just for where the door meets the frame ? What about the hinge side?

Is this good for the space underneath the door?

So freaking helpful! I manage an older community of townhomes. Thank you!!!!!

If I havea light gap and draft at the top, would that work for this? If I press on the door, it closes tighter and both problems disappear, is this a door adjustment issue? If so, who do I call to fix it? Three different handy mans have made it worse.
