I am unable to find replacement bottom door seals for my two 6 ft. Patio doors. I have enclosed some pictures of the seals and also a dimensioned drawing of the seal section. Hope you can help !

Thanks,

Dave

Thanks for your patience in this matter, Dave. Unfortunately, we have not been able to find a replacement for this weatherseal. The best option we've been able to find is our 58-056E. Could you possibly use this as a substitute? Look it over and let me know what you think.

Tom,
I don't think your recommended seal will quite get it, the old seal is kind of an oblong shape which the door bottom rides on, so, I am ordering an automotive type D shaped seal( 13mm high X 14mm wide) with an adhesive strip on the bottom to see if that will work( its inexpensive so if it does not work I will be out next to nothing and will be all the wiser for what may work next attempt!!!)
Thanks for the help, if you can't find a replacement seal I feel comfortable with my unsuccessful attempt to find one.

That sounds like a pretty clever solution! Please let us know how it works out, I'd be curious to know. If it doesn't then we will do our best to find something that will.
