New door question

Hi folks I have had a new door fitted and the guys that did it weren’t the best. 
 

The house is owned by a housing assoocation and they don’t  care too much about there houses to be honest.
 

I’ve attached pics of the way it was fitted.

it’s a Upvc door set and they fitted flush to the vertical battons no problem there. 
Then they propped up the bottom of the door which has a low threshold attached to it with a Batton. They didn’t use a sill. 
 

told me didn’t need one and batton will do the job. 
 

Is this done correctly?
As it’s a bit draughty I’d love to improve it to be more airtight.

If the draught is coming up through the gap I would say it wasn’t sealed underneath the new door. Pretty easy to fill the gap under the door and the strip inside. If draught/s are coming around the side, pull the cover strip off and fill the side and top gaps they probably left.
