I have a double glazed upvc front door which has a weather strip which
goes in a 'T' slot on the bottom of the door. This strip has failed,
its ripped out, and I cannot find anybody who can recommend where I
can get a replacement. The strip is rather like a car wiper blade. Its
made of rubber and is T shaped and about 10mm wide. Does anybody know
what it is called and where I could get a replacement. The installer
has gone bust so contacting them is no use.
Thanks

Thanks, not quite it though. This is like a rubber blade I guess.

Any printed markings on the profiles that may give a clue to the
maker of the profile? There aren't that many companies making the
profiles even if there are hundreds of companies making windows/doors
from the profiles.

Mine's a StormGuard http://www.stormguard.co.uk/ and they sent me one
free of charge after I chatted to their customer services to enquire
where I might purchase a replacement.
