While the door is striped it may be easier…

And drill some small holes in the lower door frame so you can squirt it . Then fit the 300 lower seal on to that instead of the sill( this way you won’t get dirt marks on the legs when getting in)

+100 for the later lower door seal. This provides a proper door to sill seal - here, mine is near 100% air and water tight...it's amazing just how good it really is. I pass through Bucklebury Ford at 0.5-0.6 metres deep every 4-6weeks and there's zero water ingress. Be sure to buy G grade seals not the BlueBox Chinesium specials.

There is a door seal that attaches to the side sill.. when this gets wet & dirty it leaves marks on your trouser legs.
What you do is attach this seal to the lower door(the part that has rotted out on your other door) so when you open the door you won’t get dirty..

@v8250 may have photos… I leave a gap for the water to escape & the mrs moans about the draught

Hi Phil, yes they run the full length under door frame and up both sides with reducing tails. The tails running up both sides close to form an excellent seal to the main door frame seals and provides excellent reduction in air in draftiness. Maybe Mrs Hicap will approve...
