Wooden door - draft seal at bottom


Recommended Posts

We are replacing the wooden external-spec door into our closed porch (unheated) and wondered if anyone has any suggestions for threshold seals at the bottom?
 

The existing threshold has a simple upright bar running across the width in the centre of the closed position and the door has a matching lip at the bottom. There was once a compressible seal between bar and lip, but this fell apart long ago. Naturally a draft comes in.

 

I’m going to a bit of trouble to reduce heat loss into the porch (e.g. replacing single-glazed sidelights with double glazed units, new door with double glazed panels) and the bottom of the door is the definite weak point of the plan.
