Commercial Door Seal

Question

I need help identifying the proper replacement piece for the gray wool on our front office door.

In the first photo I wanted to point out the gap that exists due to the wool on our door currently and as a result of that gap we have a significant amount of cold Midwest air streaming into our office. It's freezing!!

The other photo's I have attached are aimed at hopefully getting an idea as to the proper replacement piece for our gray wool on the door panel.

After removing the panel from the side of the door it appears that we will need to completely replace that panel piece with the gray wool fibers on either side of the pan.
I was unable to successfully remove the gray wool from the panel even after removing the panel from the door itself.

That tells me that we may just need to replace the entire panel piece. This worries me because I don't know the manufacturer of this specific door nor do I know where to go to find an exact replica of the panel.

Any help you can offer would be much appreciated.

I'm not sure if it's possible to replace the metal track which holds the wool pile. Even if you could find out the manufacturer of the doors, that part could be discontinued.

Look at the channel were the wool pile fits into and see if there's any pin marks which help secure the wool pile. If there are pin marks holding in the wool pile, you will need to use a small screw driver to open up the channel so you can remove the pile and get a measurement on it. Then you can compare your wool pile with those we carry on our site here.
