The complete guide
Fitting a hook-and-loop draught excluder without ruining the door finish
Prepare the bottom edge
Wipe the underside of the door with a mild degreaser and let it dry completely. Adhesive grips best on a clean, warm surface, so fit it in a warm room.
Position the strip
Hold the cushion against the door and mark where its top edge should sit. Press the adhesive strip along the line, press for thirty seconds, and then attach the cushion.
Care for the finish
A gloss or a varnish takes strip adhesive better than a flaking painted surface. If the paint is old, test a small piece in a hidden spot first and peel it off to check the paint stays put. When you want to remove the strip, warm it gently with a hairdryer and peel slowly at a low angle.
