Thermwell VA17H Vinyl Door Weatherstrip Set 3/4 in Gray

Product Description

The THERMWELL VA17H is a gray vinyl door weatherstrip set designed to seal gaps around standard entry doors, reducing air infiltration and moisture intrusion. The set includes extruded aluminum carriers with tubular vinyl strips for a durable, compressible seal along door edges and the top rail. This kit is suited for residential and light commercial applications and is typically installed by HVAC technicians, general contractors, or experienced DIYers performing weatherization work. The aluminum backing provides rigidity and secure fastening, while the tubular vinyl compresses against the door surface to maintain a consistent seal through repeated use.

The VA17H is intended for use on standard exterior hinged doors where air sealing and basic weather resistance are required. The gray finish suits most painted or aluminum door frames. The three-piece configuration covers the two vertical sides and the top horizontal rail of a standard 7-foot door opening, making it a complete door perimeter solution without the need for separate component sourcing.

Key Features

• Three-piece set: two 7-foot vertical strips and one 3-foot horizontal top strip for full door perimeter coverage
• Extruded aluminum carrier provides rigid backing and secure nail or screw fastening to door stop
• Tubular vinyl strip compresses against door face to form a continuous air and moisture seal
• Gray finish compatible with common exterior door frame colors
• 3/4 inch width profile fits standard door stop dimensions

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or new-installation weatherstrip set for standard residential exterior hinged doors with a 7-foot door height and door stops accepting a 3/4 inch wide weatherstrip profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a general contractor, handyman, or HVAC weatherization technician using a hammer or drill and appropriate fasteners. The door should be closed and latched during fitting to ensure proper compression of the tubular vinyl against the door face. Cut strips to length as needed using a fine-tooth hacksaw or aviation snips for the aluminum carrier. Follow local building energy codes for minimum air sealing requirements on exterior openings.
