Door Weather & Rain Deflector Bars

Door Weather Bars & Rain Deflectors

Rain getting in under the door? A weather bar (rain deflector or drip bar) fits along the bottom of the outside of the door and throws water away from the gap.

We stock a JCP uPVC click fit weather bar (850mm), Exitex and Stormguard aluminium weather bars (914mm), the Stormguard 32mm and 63mm drip bars, a Stormguard bottom door seal strip, and replacement end caps for Exitex weather bars.

Choosing a Weather Bar

Door width

Measure the width of the door. Compare it with the length on the listing.

uPVC or aluminium

The JCP click fit bar is for uPVC doors. Aluminium bars suit timber, uPVC and composite doors; check the listing for fixing.

Height

Choose a slim or deeper bar to suit the gap above your threshold.

End caps

If your bar is fine but the end caps are broken or missing, you may only need new end caps.

Weather Bar Guide

How a Weather Bar Works

The bar sticks out from the bottom of the door and has a lip that throws rain away from the gap between the door and the threshold. It works best together with a good threshold.

Fitting a Weather Bar

Close the door and check the bar clears the threshold, then fix it to the outside face of the door. Seal along the top edge if the listing advises it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a weather bar and a draught excluder?

A weather bar stops rain. A draught excluder or bottom seal closes the gap to stop draughts. Some doors need both.

Can I cut a weather bar to size?

Check the listing for each bar.

Do you sell end caps on their own?

Yes, we stock replacement end caps for Exitex weather bars.
