Thresholds & Weather Stripping

Protect your home from drafts, moisture, and temperature fluctuations with thresholds & weather stripping from Woodwork Manufacturing & Supply. These essential components don’t just improve energy efficiency - they also help extend the life of your doors while keeping your living spaces more comfortable year-round.

What Are Thresholds & Weather Stripping?

Thresholds & weather stripping work together to seal gaps between your doors and frames. A threshold is the bottom strip that sits at the base of a doorway, creating a smooth transition and helping prevent air, dust, and water from entering. Weather stripping lines the door frame or jambs, using flexible materials like rubber, vinyl, or silicone to form a tight seal when the door is closed.

When properly installed, these components create an effective barrier against outdoor elements, noise, and pests, improving comfort and energy savings. At Woodwork, we carry high-quality materials designed for long-term durability and easy installation, available in a variety of finishes and profiles to match any residential or light commercial setting.
