DIY Tips For Installing Weatherstripping

Do you see that light shining through this door gap right here where the door meets the frame? When you see light, that means there’s going to be a draft which means that your energy bills are going to cost more, but you can fix this yourself and it doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. With a little self adhesive foam weather stripping that you can pick up right here at the store, fixing this drafty door is a snap.

All you do is take the foam weather stripping out of the package, open up the door, and where the jam and the door closes, you take this self adhesive foam and you just slowly stick it and press it into place all the way down to the bottom of the frame. So that when the door closes, it closes against this new weather stripping which makes it nice and tight, and draft free. And that way when you close the doors, there’s no light, no draft and you just saved money on your energy bills.
