A mid-size foam seal for the common 4 to 6mm door and window gap.
At 10mm wide and 6mm thick, this white foam tape sits in the middle of the range: slimmer than a wide door strip, chunkier than the finest window tape. A full 10m roll covers several frames.
A 10m roll of white self-adhesive foam draught tape, 10mm wide and 6mm thick. A middle-of-the-range size for door and window frame gaps.
About this draught excluder tape & foam strips
If you are not sure what size of foam tape to buy, 10mm wide and 6mm thick is the sensible middle. It is thick enough to seal the common gap around a door frame, and thin enough not to stop a window latch from engaging. This roll is 10 metres in white, which makes it easy to run along a painted or uPVC frame.
The foam is described as weatherproof, resistant to dust and water and easy to work with, and the adhesive backing has a grid pattern to help it grip. The supplier lists many sizes in the range, so if the first roll proves too slim or too thick, the nearest alternative is easy to find.
Fit it by cleaning the frame, peeling back a short length of backing and pressing the tape along the rebate. Do not stretch it as you go, because stretched foam shrinks back and leaves a gap at the corners. Cut cleanly with scissors and butt the ends together at the corners.

Got questions?
10mm wide and 6mm thick, on a 10m roll.
White.
Yes, it is designed for most clean, dry surfaces including painted wood and uPVC.
A larger-gap tape, a P-profile rubber or a brush strip may be better.
Slide a thin piece of card into the gap with the door or window closed and note how wide the gap is. The tape should be a little thicker than that so it is gently squeezed when closed.

The complete guide
Foam is elastic. If you stretch it while you stick it, it slowly relaxes and shortens. Corners open up.
Lay the tape on without tension, press as you go and leave it a little long at the ends. Trim to size once it is on.
Butt two pieces tight rather than bending one round. A bent foam strip can pinch and peel.
