Description
Reliable Perimeter Protection with the FS3/34 34mm Brush Draught Excluder 3M Length Aluminium Carrier
Managing ambient room temperature, controlling energy waste, and stopping the ingress of external contaminants can be an uphill struggle in commercial, industrial, and busy domestic properties. Large doors, rolling shutters, and expansive access hatches frequently suffer from uneven gaps along their bottom and side thresholds. Left unprotected, these gaps allow biting draughts, sound vibration, blowing dust, and pests to creep inside unrestricted. The FS3/34 34mm Brush Draught Excluder 3M Length Aluminium Carrier offers a robust, highly adaptable barrier that bridges substantial structural voids effortlessly, delivering immediate environmental balance and comfort to your building interior.
Engineered around a rigid extruded aluminium channel, this three-metre brush strip assembly houses high-density Type 6 nylon filaments designed to flex around uneven flooring without sustaining permanent distortion. Whether your entranceway features pitted concrete, timber framing, or raised thresholds, the dense bristle formation creates a comprehensive sweep seal that halts escaping warmth and eliminates rattling panels. It provides an immediate remedy against the elements while maintaining a clean, professional aesthetic across expansive doorway widths.
Crafted for long term service in demanding environments, the combination of electro galvanised steel core binding and mill finish aluminium ensures the unit stands up to tough physical impacts and relentless operational cycles. It effortlessly reduces noise transfer and seals out dirt without adding drag or interfering with smooth door movement, ensuring your property stays protected, quiet, and thermally efficient throughout every season.
Key Performance Advantages
Resilient Type 6 Nylon Bristles
The filaments are extruded from premium Type 6 nylon, renowned for exceptional bend recovery and superior resistance to friction. Even after millions of door operations across rough surfaces, the bristles spring back to their upright profile to maintain an unbroken thermal barrier.
Extreme Thermal Endurance
Designed to function smoothly in ambient temperatures ranging from minus 40 degrees Celsius up to plus 100 degrees Celsius, this brush seal will not become brittle in freezing cold winter winds or warp when exposed to direct summer heat radiating off industrial metal doors.
Corrosion Protected Core
The core wire and metal backing holding the bristle bundle together are made from electro galvanised steel. This treated construction prevents premature rust formation and maintains firm mechanical retention within the aluminium track even in damp British weather conditions.
Generous Continuous Length
Supplied in an unbroken three-metre format, the carrier eliminates unsightly joins across large industrial entrances, garage openings, and double door sets. The generous span allows installers to achieve a unified, clean architectural seal using a single seamless piece.
Installation and Sizing Guide
Stage 1 Accurate Measurement
Carefully measure your door width or aperture frame before unpacking. Measure both the total clearance gap beneath the door and the exact running track width to confirm the 34mm brush reach provides the proper compression depth against the floor.
Stage 2 Carrier Cutting
Slide the internal brush strip slightly out from the aluminium carrier before cutting. Cut the rigid mill finish aluminium casing to size using a standard hacksaw, ensuring you de-burr the trimmed metal edges for a tidy, flush fit.
Stage 3 Brush Trimming
Trim the steel backed brush core to match the aluminium track using heavy duty side cutters or metal snips. Crimp the ends of the metal backing lightly to ensure the nylon bristles remain tightly locked in place during heavy daily operation.
Stage 4 Final Fixing
Position the carrier flat against the lower face of the door leaf. Pre-drill pilot holes through the aluminium flange and secure firmly using appropriate wood screws or self-tapping fasteners, checking that the bristles make continuous light contact with the threshold.

Broad Multi-Industry Applications
The adaptability of the upright carrier makes the FS3/34 brush seal a versatile favourite among maintenance teams, commercial shopfitters, and property owners. The vertical 180-degree carrier style allows it to be fastened directly across door bottoms or along jambs, acting not only as an environmental seal but also as a stable guide and stabilizer for moving mechanical elements. Typical installation applications include:
- Industrial Roller Shutters and Sectional Doors: Closes the expansive gap beneath rolling warehouse doors to stop wind tunnel effects, dry leaves, and vermin from entering storage bays.
- Commercial Glass and Timber Entrances: Suppresses acoustic noise from busy high streets while retaining indoor thermal comfort inside retail reception areas.
- Sliding Doors and Conveyor Guide Rails: Functions as a low friction wiper and guide that keeps sliding partitions steady and shields moving parts from abrasive dust buildup.
- Server Cabinets and Data Cable Openings: Manages airflow distribution around server rooms, keeping cold aisle air separate from hot exhausts without restricting cable routing.
