The EMV slim line seal provides a simple and low cost solution for keeping draughts out of your home or rental, in turn helping to improve comfort and energy efficiency. The seal is installed along the bottom and top edges of sliding aluminium doors. For extra draught-proofing and to prevent your door from rattling, you can use a seal in the door jamb as well. It's easy to DIY and you can call us for help if you run into difficulty.

What you will need:

• Tape measure
• Cleaning cloth
• Scissors
• Butter knife

 Hacks:

• Before installing the seal, always clean the part of door where it will be fitted.
• After installation, use a butter knife to press the seal onto the door, to ensure the adhesive sticks to it properly.
• If installing a seal in the door jamb, make sure to fold it over before inserting it

Q: What does EMV for Aluminium Doors do? 
A: EMV stops draughts from coming in around your aluminium sliding doors.

Q: Is EMV for Aluminium Doors easy to install? 
A: Yes it is easy but please be sure to watch the installation video and follow the instructions. 

1. Clean
2. Measure & Cut
3. Fold & Apply 

Q: What is EMV for Aluminium Doors made of? 
A: EMV is made out of plastic, with an adhesive on the back.

Q: When should I use EMV? 
A: You can utilize EMV for many different uses. The most common applications are for when the original seal of aluminium sliding doors or windows is worn out, or when the gap of a hinged door is too small to apply other draught excluders. 

Q: I have sticky residue on my door from a previous attempt to draught proof, how do I get it off? 
A: The best way we've found for removing residue is with methylated spirits and a cloth. Use plenty of the methylated spirits on the cloth and gently rub away the residue. Once the residue has been loosened from the surface you will find it rolls in balls that are easily wiped away. Please take care as methylated spirits can dissolve acrylic paint. Test on a small out of the way patch first.
Alternatively, if you have a very stable substrate to work with (such as powder coated aluminium), you can use turpentine instead of the methylated spirits. This is not advised if you are unsure as to what finish you currently have on your door jamb. If unsure, test in a small out of the way patch.

Q: Can I use EMV as a renter? 
A:  Yes, renters do not worry. EMV can easily be removed and therefore works well in rental applications. In most cases you do not even notice the EMV unless you are specifically looking for it.

A: EMV can be used for many applications.  To find out if EMV will work for your needs, just use the search bar at the top of the page and search for "EMV".

However, in order to get the best value from your EMV investment, here are a few tips that will help: 

• Thoroughly clean the surface that your EMV seal is to be adhered to.  In situations where EMV has 'failed', this is 95% of the reason.  The other reason is the type of paint on the door jamb.  Very oily paints make longer term adhesion quite challenging.   (use Draught Dodgers for doors and fix them with brads instead)
• EMV is less happy on a fully exposed door that gets full weather - sun and rain.  To be fair, your door will also be less happy too! 

To get the best value for your investment, please, PLEASE watch the installation videos before you proceed.
