Description
Reliable Draught Exclusion for Draughty Doors and Windows
Unwanted draughts around external doors and opening casements can quickly cause household energy bills to rise while making living rooms and hallways uncomfortable during the colder months. Gaps between the frame and opening sash let warm air escape, while allowing damp air, dust, and outside traffic noise to enter your home. Installing a high quality seal is one of the simplest and most effective home improvement steps you can take to regain control of your indoor climate.
The Stormguard 5 Metre Roll Self Adhesive White E Draught Strip offers an easy to fit solution designed specifically to address these challenges. Engineered with a classic E-shaped extruded rubber profile, this draught excluder compresses smoothly to fill uneven gaps between 2mm and 4mm. It provides a durable barrier against cold gusts without hindering the regular latching and locking action of your windows and doors.
Suitable for timber, composite, and metal frames, this flexible self-adhesive seal adheres firmly without the need for pins, screws, or specialised tools. Whether you are refurbishing older wooden sashes or freshening up modern frames, this discreet white strip blends cleanly into your woodwork while reducing heat loss, stopping rattles, and improving your living comfort year-round.
Key Benefits and Practical Features
Resilient E Profile
The multiple raised ridges along the E-profile allow for progressive compression, ensuring an airtight seal across uneven gaps ranging between 2mm and 4mm without pushing hinges out of alignment.
Strong Self-Adhesive Backing
Equipped with a dependable peel-away adhesive tape that forms an immediate, long-lasting bond to painted timber, varnished wood, aluminium, and composite frames.
Weather and UV Resistant
Manufactured from high-grade synthetic rubber that resists cracking, hardening, and degradation when exposed to temperature swings, direct sunlight, and seasonal moisture.
Generous Roll Length
Each pack contains a 5 metre continuous coil, supplying sufficient material to seal a standard exterior door surround or multiple opening window casements in a single application.
Stage-by-Stage Installation Guide
Stage 1 Surface Preparation
Thoroughly clean the frame rebate with methylated spirits or an alcohol-based wipe to remove dust, oil, and loose paint. Ensure the substrate is completely dry before application to achieve optimal adhesive contact.
Stage 2 Measuring and Sizing
Measure each rebate section accurately with a tape measure. Using sharp household scissors or a craft knife, trim the strip cleanly to length, taking care to create square edges for neat butt joints at the corners.
Stage 3 Aligning and Sticking
Peel back roughly 100mm of backing paper at a time. Press the self-adhesive strip firmly into position along the frame rebate, working in progressive increments without stretching the rubber out of shape.
Stage 4 Final Bond and Testing
Run your thumb or a soft cloth firmly along the entire length to expel air bubbles and set the pressure-sensitive glue. Close and latch the door or window to verify complete perimeter contact and smooth closure.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I determine if this E profile strip fits my frames?
The Stormguard 5 Metre Roll Self Adhesive White E Draught Strip is designed specifically for clearance gaps measuring between 2mm and 4mm. You can check your clearance by placing a small ball of modelling clay or blu-tack in the frame margin, closing the sash, and measuring the squashed thickness with a ruler.
Can this strip be used on both internal and external doors?
Yes, it works effectively on both internal and external applications. The synthetic rubber compound withstands cold weather and moisture, while also working well on interior bedroom or study doors where reducing drafts and airborne sound is desirable.
Will this draught seal peel off over time?
The adhesive backing is engineered for a long service life. To ensure it stays firmly in place, it is vital that the surface is completely free of grease, moisture, and flaking paint before installation. Applying steady pressure during installation ensures maximum bond strength.
