Extreme Rubber Weather-Strip Reviews From A. Schick 2014-02-18
First off, I need to mention this splits into two separate ribs of weatherstrip each being 3/8" wide. No tools necessary to split it, simple and easy. Secondarily, this is my favorite weatherstrip as it works so well in many applications. I ordered 3 different kinds of Rubber Strips for Doors, and this one worked best to seal around doors since it has a large hollow void and can be compressed more or less depending on how much room is around the door (you'd be surprised at how uneven it can be). This makes installation a breeze.


Rubber Foam Strip so tight now, no bugs, cold or heat can go in or out now. We live overseas in Australia, swamp coolers are the main cooling for a house and the air used to scream past the door
(literally screeching from the airflow) during the day, and bugs would crawl in at night. Now with this Rubber Strips for Doors installed, even with all the doors and windows shut, no air comes past the door. The house stays insulated from the outdoors and no bugs!


This is meant to be used to improve the seal on a window or that already works OK but lacks adequate weather stripping. It will work fine for that purpose. It is not meant to seal other kinds of gaps. I mainly got it because I live in an apartment building and a foolish person on the floor below smokes like a chimney. The updraft carried smoke into my home constantly and adding extra weather stripping to the front door has mostly eliminated the problem. The adhesive is pretty good - better than I expected, and it has adhered well to painted metal, glass, and smooth stone. I knocked off a star because the rubber has lass spring-back than I hoped after using it for a week. It stays pretty compressed when I open the door. This will probably be an issue more if you are trying to seal an irregular sized gap or a location where the gap grows and shrinks depending on temperature and humidity.
