Draft Proofing
Draft Proofing Services
Comfort restored. Energy preserved. Authenticity maintained.
Even the most beautiful windows and doors can fall short if they let in cold air, dust, or noise. At Right Path Windows & Doors, we specialize in Draft Proofing historic and custom window and door assemblies — enhancing comfort and performance without compromising the character of your building.
Why Draft Proofing Matters
In older buildings, especially those with original wood windows or oversized entry doors, small air gaps can lead to:
- Cold spots and increased heating/cooling costs
- Moisture intrusion and material damage
- Drafts that affect tenant comfort and HVAC performance
- Reduced energy efficiency and weather resilience
Our draft-proofing services seal these vulnerabilities while respecting the architectural integrity of the building.
Precision Draft Sealing for Windows & Doors
We use high-performance materials and historically sensitive techniques to discreetly improve insulation across all window and door types:
- Weatherstripping: Custom-fit metal, felt, silicone, or bulb seals
- Threshold sweeps for exterior doors, including bronze or brush options
- Hidden gaskets for casement and double-hung windows
- Interior stop and meeting rail adjustments to tighten sashes
- Door seal kits for fire-rated or oversized commercial doors
- Custom machining when needed for retrofitting older joinery
