    Seal sliding windows at home. Say bye to noise, and dust pollution. Keep out insects, lizards and other pests. Save cash on electricity bills with improved insulation. Best of all, you DIY!

      Not completely prevent outside noise, but will reduce it significantly.

      Make a small slit in the sealing tape at the ends where it overlaps the top and bottom frames. This will close any gaps that may be left.

    kindly provide the link for rubber strips for rain protection sir ....also I'm not sure if these will prevent rain from seeping through between the doors as the sliding channel below gets filled during overwhelming rainfall days.... although rare it would be great if you could share a solution....i was considering using some kind of a shape shifting blob right where the centre of sliding doors meet when closed....

    • @elLiven
      @elLiven  3 роки тому +4

      Hi Maddy, search for 'sliding window seal tape'. No, this won't prevent rain collecting in the channels. For that, drill a small hole from the outside at the bottom level of the channel, rain water will drain and the channel remains functional. Have fun!

    Thanks, this was really helpful. Also, any idea how we can seal sound leakage from the gap at the bottom of a room door. I know there are sound proofing tapes available that stick to the insides of door frames on both sides and top. Not sure how to cover the bottom gap if the door frame is only 3 side (both sides and top). Hope I was able to explain it properly. 🙏

    • @elLiven
      @elLiven  3 роки тому +4

      Glad it helped. You made yourself quite clear☺️ For the door bottom you need PVC / foam strips that slide under the bottom rail of the door, and seal inside and outside it. Or there's a more rigid strip that has to be screwed to the inside.

      No, not for the bottom of the door. For that specifically there are rigid rubber strips which would be more effective and last longer.
