Stormguard XP Around Door Seal — Q-Lon Draught Excluder Door & Loft Hatch Seal Kit 5x1050mm
Stop draughts and cut heating bills — Stormguard XP Q-Lon around door seal, 5 × 1050mm lengths, seals gaps up to 10mm. BS7386 Class 1 rated.
Stormguard XP Around Door Seal is the complete draught excluder kit for external, inward-opening doors, loft hatches, and inward-opening windows. If cold air, noise, or moisture is getting in around your door frame, this kit gives you everything you need to fix it without calling in a tradesperson. The Q-Lon seal is factory-fitted into a rigid aluminium carrier profile that screws directly to the outside of the frame rebate — compressing firmly against the door on closing to seal gaps of up to 10mm and restore a draught-free fit.
Stormguard is a trusted name in door and window sealing, and the XP Around Door Seal is manufactured to BS7386 (1990) Class 1 standard. Each length is fully trimmable for a precise, clean finish on any frame size, and the pack contains five 1050mm lengths — enough to seal a standard door perimeter in a single purchase.
Key Benefits for Draughty Door, Loft Hatch & Window Owners:
- Seals Gaps Up to 10mm – The Q-Lon gasket compresses on contact to close even wider gaps around older door and window frames, stopping cold air, noise, and moisture from getting through where it shouldn't.
- Cuts Heat Loss and Heating Bills – Eliminating draughts around your door frame or loft hatch helps retain warmth in your home — a simple, low-cost fix that pays for itself over a single winter.
- Hard-Wearing Q-Lon Gasket – Q-Lon is a market-leading draught seal material chosen for its resilience and long service life. It maintains its shape and sealing performance through thousands of door cycles without cracking or flattening out — unlike budget foam strip that compresses and fails within months.
- Fully Trimmable to Length – Each 1050mm length can be cut to size with a hacksaw, giving you a neat, precise fit on any standard door frame, loft hatch, or inward-opening window without waste.
- Straightforward Screw-Fix Installation – The rigid aluminium carrier profile screws directly to the outside of the frame rebate using the fixings provided, holding the Q-Lon seal in consistent contact with the door — a DIY job you can complete in under an hour.
- One Pack for the Whole Door – 5 x 1050mm lengths per pack gives you enough to seal a standard door perimeter.
- BS7386 Class 1 Rated – Manufactured to BS7386 (1990) Class 1 standard, giving you confidence this is a properly specified draught seal.

Pro Tips:
Pro Tip: For correct compression, position the carrier so that the outer face of the aluminium profile sits approximately 4mm away from the door surface when the door is closed. Too close and the door will catch; too far and the seal won't compress fully. Mark the position with the door closed, then open the door and screw the carrier in place — this removes the guesswork from getting the contact pressure right first time.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Will this seal fit a standard external door?
Yes. The XP Around Door Seal is designed for external, inward-opening doors. Five 1050mm lengths are sufficient to seal the full perimeter of most standard UK door frames — top and both sides.
Can I use this on an outward-opening door?
No — the XP Around Door Seal is specifically designed for inward-opening doors only. The seal mounts on the outside of the frame rebate and relies on the door closing inward to compress the Q-Lon gasket. For outward-opening doors, a different seal type is required.
How do I cut the seal to length without damaging it?
A hacksaw is the recommended tool. When trimming to length, cut half the required amount from each end of the strip rather than cutting the full amount from one end — this keeps the carrier symmetrical and ensures a clean, even fit at both corners.
Will the Q-Lon seal stay effective over time, or will it flatten and lose its draught-stopping ability?
Q-Lon is a high-performance cellular seal material specifically engineered to resist permanent compression. Unlike foam strip, it recovers its original shape after each door cycle and maintains consistent sealing performance over the long term.
Can I also use this on a loft hatch or inward-opening window?
Yes. The XP Around Door Seal is suitable for inward-opening loft hatches and inward-opening windows as well as doors. The five-length pack gives you enough material to complete a full door.
Why Choose the Stormguard XP Around Door Seal?
Draughts around door frames are one of the most common and most avoidable sources of heat loss in UK homes — yet many householders put up with them for years. The Stormguard XP Around Door Seal removes the friction from fixing the problem: a BS7386-rated kit with everything included in a single pack, designed for straightforward DIY fitting without specialist tools or trade experience. The Q-Lon gasket in a solid aluminium carrier is the right specification for a job that's meant to last, not a short-term fix that needs repeating every season.
