3/16 in. (.187") Backing Width x 19/64 in. (.30") Pile Height Storefront Door Weatherstripping

Weatherstripping is an essential component of any storefront door to protect your building from the elements and save energy costs. Choosing the right size pile weatherstrip is essential to ensure the door is weatherproofed effectively. Automatic Door and Hardware offers 3/16 in. (.187") Backing Width x 19/64 in. (.30") Pile Height Storefront Door Weatherstripping that is perfect for your storefront door.

To properly size your pile weatherstrip for your storefront door, follow these simple steps:

1. Measure the gap: Use a tape measure to measure the gap between the door and the frame where the weatherstripping will be installed. Make sure to measure the gap at several points along the door frame to ensure accuracy.
2. Choose the appropriate pile height: Determine the appropriate pile height based on the gap measurement you took. Our 3/16 in. (.187") Backing Width x 19/64 in. (.30") Pile Height Storefront Door Weatherstripping is designed for gaps that measure approximately 19/64 in. (.30") in height.
3. Choose the appropriate backing width: The backing width is the measurement of the channel in which the weatherstripping will be inserted. Our 3/16 in. (.187") Backing Width x 19/64 in. (.30") Pile Height Storefront Door Weatherstripping is designed to slide into a channel that is slightly larger than 3/16" wide. The best practice is to remove some of the old weatherstripping, and carefully measure it's backing width. Then match that backing width.
4. Cut the weatherstripping to size: Using a pair of scissors or a utility knife, cut the weatherstripping to the appropriate length for your door frame.
5. Install the weatherstripping: Carefully slide the new weatherstripping into the channel on the door frame, starting at the top and working your way down.

It's important to note that proper installation and sizing of pile weatherstripping is critical to ensure maximum effectiveness in keeping your building energy-efficient and protected from the weather. Be sure to inspect and replace weatherstripping as needed to maintain its effectiveness.
