Product Details
Also known as 'Center Post Weather Strip,' this adhesive strip will fix drafty doors by sealing the drafty gap created between stationary and sliding glass doors when a sliding glass door dog door panel is installed.
Available in black or white to accommodate differing sliding glass pet door colors, the draft stopper is easily installed using the adhesive backing and fits all Endura Flap dog doors for sliding door panels. The door air stopper’s adhesive strip is 1/2" wide and begins inset 1/8". Overall width is 1 7/ 8".
If your door is higher than 96", purchase another 81" draft stopper for sliding glass doors and trim to the accurate size for a secure door draft seal. Some customers use two—one at each end of the gap—for an even better seal. This energy-saving product is included in all Thermo Panel 3e dog doors for sliding glass doors, Quick Panel 3 dog doors for patio doors, and Thermo Panel 2e Microchip pet doors for sliding door panels.
Installation Instructions
Step 1: Clean the area with rubbing alcohol prior to starting for the best results.
Step 2: You can put the draft stopper on the back edge of the sliding panel or on the outside. It is recommended to place the first one on the inside. If it is too wide, you can trim lengthwise, but be careful not to trim too much, as that would prevent it from doing its job. Remember that you want the draft stopper to just barely kiss the glass. If you overlap it too much, it will wear down the adhesive and will not stay installed for long.
Step 3: Start at the top and as you unroll it pull the strip covering the adhesive as you go down, not all at once. This will allow you to have more control and get it in a straighter line.
Step 4: Trim any excess off at the bottom.
Note: Depending on the top and bottom tracks that stick up, in order to get it to go the full length of the slider you may need to notch out small sections for it to fit over the railing.
