Exitex Standard Rain Deflector & Drip Bar - 914mm Length - Inward/Outward Opening - Mill Aluminium

Fitting the weather strip

Has to be cut to fit your particular door frame. Needs to be trimmed perfectly true or else the end caps won’t fit properly. Safest to trim one end only and drill a fresh mounting hole 1 inch from the other end.

Effective and very easy to install

Fitted to a shed door. Pull out the 2 rubber seals then cut the frame with a hacksaw to the desired length minus 6mm (to allow for the two, 3mm thick, end caps). Cut the small upper seal, with a utility knife, to exactly the same length as the frame. Cut the lower seal 6mm longer than the frame because there are 'T' slots in the end caps to allow this seal to extend the full length. Pop an end cap on, feed in the two seals. Then just pop on the remaining end cap. I like the upper seal which stops rain water seeping down behind the deflector. It means you do not need to use any additional silicone or sealant when installing it. Very clean, very easy, very effective.

Waiting for Rain

Looks like it'll do the job required. Need a good downpour to test it. Appears to be the most practical Drip Stop on the market. Was a little disappointed with the End Caps. Fitting was a little sketchy. Not confident how they will stay fixed on.

Simple, does the job

Bought for my front door, does the job it was bought for

First Class Product

Used as a replacement, far superior to the original one and has a strong robust quality feel to it.
