| 659440 | 2008-04-19 00:54:00 | What about using two layers of Butynol. | Cicero (40) | ||
| 659441 | 2008-04-19 01:34:00 | Years ago we used to buy rolls of foam strip (self-adhesive one side) for coach building when fitting doors. I think they were a skellerup product. You can get it from mitre 1 still, although I don't think it is made by skellerup anymmore |

| 659442 | 2008-04-19 07:50:00 | I haven't had a chance to check out any suggested suppliers yet, but just to add a bit more detail, I need to provide 3-4 cm of flexible lip to achieve a dust and debris seal, and foam based products are not really in the hunt. This is not like sealing a close-fitting door against a jamb i.e normal draught-proofing. This is for gap closure between the bottom of the door and the concrete floor, and also for about a metre up each side. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 659443 | 2008-04-19 07:56:00 | Any building supply depot, even if its your local hardware store. You will need a length of light steel/aluminium and bolts to bracket the (suitable) material to the bottom of the door. | Metla (12) | ||

| 659447 | 2008-04-26 03:13:00 | OK, I finally found what I needed . Para Rubber (co-located with "The Plastic Box" on the North Shore) have a wide range of widths and thicknesses of interior and exterior rated neoprene rubber strips available . The required amount of exterior rated 3mm x 50mm strip cost just $50 . None of the big hardware chains stocked this, or anything like it, they only sell foam draught-stopper stuff . Thanks for the various suggestions . Cheers Billy 8-{) |
