This guy’s always got the BEST videos. Other guys try to be funny, quirky, and tell bad jokes. Plus they don’t actually SHOW you what’s going on. This guy - videos are simple, explanation clear, and video actually shows you what to do.
Keep ‘em coming.
Videos that don’t waste time and get right to business are the best.
Yup subscribed and liked and shared
Pro tip, use the old strip to cut the new one to the correct length.
Hoping it was done correctly.
@@user-wc2ho7im7j ullillllllłpuuppp.
Pre pro tip: Ensure the old strip was good fit before using it as reference.
Sometimes the old ones shrink over time.
Bang! Bang!
everytime i search youtube for home improvement, I always get a video by this guy. He always has the best videos.
Yeah he fye (fire)
Yes he does, I built a nice addition on my house with his help! Shannon is great
I like that you left the whole process in the video so that we could see an actual problem come up. Some people edit the video to make it seem like it goes perfect for them every time.
This! 🎉
Very helpful! A little tip: the bottom strip was all torn up and I couldn't pull the spline out. I used a heat gun to warm up the metal piece and soften the vinyl spline and was able to pull it out.
I love that the stripping didn't go in easy as pie but he demonstrated how to stick to the job and not get frustrated.
lol what do you think he would do? post a video of him getting frustrated and quit? 😂
@@dchristianrobert drop a few F-bombs maybe? Lol!
I agree. His video is realistic.
@@dchristianrobert most edit their videos to make it look easy
yeah, i am exactly worried about that. what if my new one doesn't get in?...
I watched my contractor put the first one in when my home was built, 7 years ago! I said it was so easy, I can remember that. Thank you for the reminder. I knew what to buy, just forgot what to do. Thank you for the video!
You’re kidding me!! I’ve been struggling with my cats ripping my seal up, losing heat/air through the door, and crying over this, and it’s this easy?? 😭 I thought I would have to remove that wood! Thank god for UA-cam!!
Same!!!! My cats suck! Don't know why they messed it up, but I'm glad I found this video.
Also here cuz of cats. 😡
@@stevencooper9086 welcome!
Wish it was this easy!! I’ve tried multiple times and two trips to Home Depot and still can’t get the damn weatherstripping to go into that tiny groove. Uggghhh. Guess it’s time to call a handyman. 🫤
@@KT-sq2ml are you having a hard time removing the old stripping or pressing in the new?
Im a newbie and totally thought mine was going to be glued on or something. Glad to see how easy this is. Need to do this to my back door asap!
This guy has by far the best home improvement videos. He’s easy to listen to. His videos are thorough and he’s descriptive.
I agree with just about everyone else. One of my dogs ripped up one side of my weatherstripping when she got locked out. I was really struggling with how to do this and after watching this video had the old swapped with the new in under 5 minutes! Yay! thank you!
I had been putting off replacing door weatherstrip for two winters , didn't think I could afford to have it done, and didn't know how to do it myself. But today it was windy cold and wind was blowing through so I thought what the heck I'm going to try and fix it .Looked it up on youtube and voila there you was. i went to the local hardware store bought the strip $4.99 came home very simple and easy thanks to your video. thanks Again.
After watching this video I feel confident I can replace my door stripping. Thank you so much!
I have seen a lot of home handyman type videos depicting different levels of skill. I hope you realize your videos provide a very positive set of instructions that are backed by your knowledge and skill. Thanks!
Love your videos. Your productions are professional, easy to follow, and zero fluff! Don't have to deal with what seems like you are auditioning for a B grade movie role like some of the videos out there. Helpful for spectrum of skill levels.
As for this particular video, like some of viewers here I was about to start ripping the doorframe thinking the seal is built in. From now on, I am searching your collection of videos first before anything.
Thanks so much!
Me and my bro was needing to replace our weatherstripping and legit was talking about we didn't know if it was difficult even tho it seemed easy and you definitely confirmed it's easy! Definitely appreciate the tutorial and time uploading this...
Helped so much! Hardest part was figuring what went where and how to keep it in the groove. The use of the tool was a huge help.
So so helpful! Thank you so much for posting! I’m a very impatient wife and like to do things on my own.. this was so easy!
Mine is still in good shape but doesn't seem like the door has the tight fit I remember, I live in WI 16 degrees right now so I will try to replace it in spring. Thank you Shannon I have learned a lot from your videos, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the step by step. My 2 yr old grandson ripped the stripping from door knob to floor and I need to replace it. This is a big help.
Thank you so much! I almost paid someone $165 to do this for me! How crazy that it’s so easy and fast! Thanks again!!
It sure is crazy how some of these home remodeler's charge what they charge for a job like this. Crooked.
@Kcaj that's why I try to learn how to fix things myself. These handyman contractors are scam artists
@@TheFlushmate23I called one contractor in my area he wanted $200 for a service call fee,that's just to knock on your door and say hi
@@kcaj4871 everyone is just trying to earn a living, might be the only work they get for the day
I'm a DIY, but if I have to drive over and it takes about an hour, I'd charge about this much.
You just saved me a bit of money. Moving to a new house a week from Monday and was already told the weather stripping needs to be replaced. Thanks!
Just what I needed. I could not figure out how to get the old stripping out but now I see what I need to do. Thanks for the video!
Im amazed this is so easy, I thought I was going to have to remove the frame- can’t wait to get this project done this weekend
Thanks bro. Just did this on my door and it worked. I started with needlenose plyers and it was just tearing. Switched to regular plyers with larger gripping surface area and was able to pull it out.
Very helpful
Our family pets have wrecked these seals on front and back doors over the years... relieved to see this is an easy fix
Thanks for this video! It showed me EXACTLY what I needed to know to change my door side seal. Amazingly helpful!
Very helpful! Used your method in 2024! Thank you!
Thank you for this video! A bought one piece of weather strip and was trying to figure out how to do it. After watching the video, I installed it before my morning coffee. Thank you again!
Did you have your morning coffee at 11:59am then.
@@Dime_Bar If they did shift work they may have.
Thank you for the help and for the detailed guide! I was able to replace my torn weather strip and now it looks very clean
Thanks man! Did this job today @ my house. Rocked it. Bought that bar tool you use, and it's kinda my new favorite thing. Keep it up. Great vid.
Fast to point-no drama. Subscirbed
Excellent video and just what I needed! Thank you sir for helping me as I’m usually so insecure on projects I’ve never done, thinking I’m going to tuin something lol. Again thanks, I’m headed to the door to replace my stripping today that my Golden Retriever scratched and tore up during puppy days.
That’s why I need to replace mine! My Chesapeake did the same thing! 😊
Thank you. This is much easier than I anticipated. I need to replace it on 2 doors
Thank you from Texas! My husband did it the last time but he's out of town and our cat ripped up our strip. Did it myself this evening before he comes home lol
I’m here for this exact reason! Also from Texas 😂
Going to attempt this today for the same reason!! lol
Just did mine for the same reason too ... Cats! Lol.
Second time replacing because of my cat 😡
man, thanks so much. solid instructions. I changed mine out in like 15min tops. So helpful!
nice one, I was looking at doing mine but couldn't really work out how it fit looks the same as what your showing. Back home in the UK, our door weather strips are basically foam backed tape, peal off and put back on, easy job, cool one Shannon, your a rockstar !
Awesome vid. As usual its not as easy on youtube as there is a pull technique when using the pliers to pull out the previous lining that we needed to figure out but once they were out we got the hang of it. Thanks for everything
Thanks for posting this video. You saved me a lot of money . I was going to have a professional to install one piece of weather strip, just like you did here in this video.
Looks very easy and fast.
Thanks again.
I look forward to seeing more of your videos 🙏
Shannon, once again, " ů da Man".
Thanks very much. Your visuals have made sense of those vague and
confusing weather strips available at the hardware store. 👍
Just seeing that the insert for the gap saved me a lot of time trying go glue the rubber weather stripping in!
Thanks for your video, was just been able to remove the weatherstrip on two of my doors.
Thank you! As a renter, I really appreciate videos like this. Can get more of my safety deposit back.
Thank you very much for your video...thought it was going to be a big job and had it done in less then a minute after watching your video...great job
So helpful! Absolutely not handy, and just knocked this out in 20 minutes. Saved me a handyman visit. Thank you!!!
I couldn't get the new weatherstrip in. I just need some encouragement from my Canadian friend. Thanks for the vids. You're the man.
Thank you for helping us take care (on our own) of our homes💕
By far, the best video I've come across in my searches for diy weatherstripping
Great video. Thanks much!
Thankvyou Terry as always showing us how to DIY videos to improve our homes. I greatly appreciate you sir!!!
Thank you for this video. I can do now change my own weatherstrip seals.
Us women need all the help we can get. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much!!!!! Going to get the new weather stripping now!
Your red bar appears to be a tool for working bee hives. Glad to find another use for my hive tool as my dogs have shredded my weather stripping. Good job. Thanks.
I own so many of these handy red pry bars and own exactly zero bees! LOL
Thank you Shannon. You’re video was easy to follow and I was able to change the weather strip on my door.
Thank you for sharing! Did this in less than 10 min
Great video ,the instructions were very good and now I can replace the stripping, i did not know how to remove the stripping Ty
I have used a screen spline tool to do this once it has been started. great video.
Thank you for having this video now i know how to replace my door weather strip
Our dog chewed ours up....but this looks like a repair even I can take care of, thanks so much for sharing!
Thank very much Sir. I was having a lot of trouble doing this project. God bless you 🙏
This is so helpful, I was ready to remove the door frame to get the weather stripping out.
I am not a handyman but after watching this video I took on replacing mine. Thank you.
Easy Peasy can that be! I have considered foam (too thick and didn't hold up) or felt ( too thin). I have been looking at the weather stripping and knew it had to come out somehow so I could replace it. Now I can tell my wife "I know how to fit that" Thanks for sharing
So did the foam not work? I just purchased foam weather stripping but haven't installed it yet. Wondering if I should try a different material? First time trying this..appreciate any feedback. Thanks so much.
The cat snuck in the garage and was pulling on the ceal all night.....and now guess what's chewd up and needs to be replaced.. pshhhhh.....buuuut.. guess who watched a video on how to replace it and can do it his damn self? 😊
A link to the weatherstripping would help!!!
Perfect video, don't know if the Weatherstrip had ever been replaced on the front door, the house is 30 years old, but got the job done, looks great and under 10 minutes.
Thank you sir. Very helpful video.
I figured is was that easy.
Jyst nice to see it done by someone else
Thanks 4 then demonstration
Thank you! I followed your instructions, and I was successful! I'm just waiting for my husband to notice the job is done! 😁
Wonderful!
Very good diy thank you. Your intstructions are clear and complete, very easy to follow....
Even though this weather stripping all looks the same, it isnt. Some is stiffer and the door wont shut. I've done numerous doors and it's important to get the same density.
the 24 year-old weatherstrip that is on my garage service door is black and seems very soft, it's a total hot mess though, just falls apart in your hand. So what type of black weatherstrip should i get and thanks a ton for your input !!!!!! can you send me a link to a good replacement , i need to go all around the door. I fixed the rotting at the bottom of the door, so getting the new weatherstriping in might be a challenge. i might have to cut it down and just glue that part on because i'm not sure if the slot has been affected (probably has) by my wood epoxy and fiberglass (bondo) repair down there. any tips on that is also welcomed. I wish i could just replace the entire door frame but that will have to wait until for a couple years.
My dog scratched it up and chunks are missing because she’s clingy and didn’t want to be outside on a nice 73° day. So this is helpful for me thank you
My cat tore mine up, and I move soon, so I’ll be sure to do this so I can get my deposit back 😉😉
same here, our dogs scratched ours all up and now air flows between the cracks. I plan on only replacing the bad part and not all of it and I'm thinking of adding a piece of wood to cover the damage siding to hopefully prevent future destruction.
Shannon is always here for ya! Thanks a ton buddy!
Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for making this video, sir.
Looks like an easy replacement, thanks
Excellent video 👍 thank you for sharing.
Very entertaining and useful. Thank you very much!
I really appreciate your videos. Many thanks!
Thanks my friend GOD bless u. For share this video I'm going to fix a dor of my house

Nice how this shows the whole job right through.
This is great! I have a back door with this weather stripping. When we had cats, they scratched it down on the bottom. Thanks for the video.
Awesome video. Thank you so much. Impeccable work. ❤
I didn't realize it was so easy. I'll change it now!
Straight forward and informative. Thank you!
Thanks for letting us watch the WHOLE process.
Sir, Thank you so much. This is a great video.
