Hi,

I am trying to find a replacement part for my broken astragal for my patio door. Its a 4 door configuration with 2 static and the middle two sliding left and right. The astragal on the right door allows the left door to lock in and keep the wind drafts out. As you can see there are some chips in the bottom that lets cold air in. Can you please help me with identifying the correct part of this door?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Saro

Thanks for posting. I'm not quite certain what it is you're looking for. Do you need replacement weatherstripping. If so, you can see our selection here. If you need to replace actual parts of the door frame, I am afraid we cannot help; you will need to contact the original supplier of the door for guidance. Let us know what you need!

Hi!
Thanks for the response. I am trying to replace the plastic astragal or the weather stripping what ever that's called. It's the 1.5" casing that's screwed to one of the doors so it cathes the other door when closed and provides some weather protection. You can see in one of the photos the edges are broken and it lets air in when the door is closed.

Thanks !

Thank you for clarifying. Looking at your photos, it looks like the cracked section is literally part of the frame of the door itself. I'm afraid this isn't something we'll be able to replace. You'll need to contact the original manufacturer of the door for assistance.

If you aren't sure who that is, check the inside frame for a metallic AAMA sticker. If you were to show us a photo of that, it may provide a clue as to who made it. We can at least point you in the right direction.

Sorry again that we can't supply this.
