Product Information

Decor style – If the draught excluder will be sitting in a prominent place such as a living room, consider a style that matches with your existing decor. This will see it blend in with the surroundings and follow through with the overall aesthetic of your home. Alternatively, you might be after something that stands out. A bright colour among darks, or one of the many adorable character and animal-style excluders can act as a statement piece in your home. For front doors and garage doors, fixed draught excluders with brushes are the most durable choice, while for living spaces and bedrooms, movable door draught excluders are perfect and can look really stylish, too. If you're looking for the more utilitarian kind (for example, metal, rubber or brush draught excluders for your doors and windows), then these are usually around a fiver.

The most common type of draught excluder you’ll see is one that sits across the bottom of a door. Typically, it will be the same length as the door and tube-shaped (hence a draught excluder is also known as a door sausage or door snake). You might also come across them in a rectangular or triangle shape. An additional benefit of using tight draught excluders is that they can keep out mice and insects. Your home will be protected from any little things that can fly inside with the blowing wind.

One of the more cost-effective options on the list, this door brush draught excluder is particularly common and useful for fixing up draughty external doors. The bristles can be cut to fit against the doorframe or floor, allowing it to sweep gently when opened, without dragging across the floor. The only real catch here is that this type of draught excluder can be more difficult to install over other versions. Installation requires measuring, cutting if necessary and drilling into the door. If you’re not so handy with tools, we’d give this one a miss.
