DOOR SWEEP INSTALL INSTALL

DOOR SWEEP INSTALL INSTALL

Once all the holes are pre drilled, simply install the sweep and press the sweep down so that the screws are at the top of the slots on the sweep and tighten the screws. Typically, drilling pilot holes at the bottom of the slotted mark on the door will allow you the perfect amount of adjustability downward with the sweep to get a perfect seal along the entire bottom of the door.

With the sweep making contact with the floor, mark all the pre drilled slots onto the door.

Now, position the sweep on the bottom of the door with both edges of the retainer even with the edge of the door, bring the sweep down to the floor. After the install is complete you will trim off any excess weather seal, it is best to use a utility knife with a new, sharp blade to cut the weather seal. Using a hack saw, cut the retainer, then pull the weather seal back into place and leave 1/2″ of extra weather seal sticking out of both ends, then cut the weather seal. Pull the weather seal out past the mark on the retainer where you will be cutting. Close the door and working from the inside, position the door sweep on the bottom of the door, keep one edge flush with the edge of the door and mark the other end of the retainer of the residential door sweep at the other edge of the door.
