Lay Climate Stripping Over The Base Entryway Board

At a home improvement store, buy some elastic climate stripping. Lay the board level on a workbench. The stripping is molded like a cylinder, and you can fit the edge of the entryway board in the cylinder's furrow.

Any of the boards can be utilized as the lower board. Pick one, however recall that the one with the climate stripping is the one that should be set first.

Screw The Track To The Door Jamb
