Pro Tips:
- For best acoustic performance use solid core doors
- You can apply too much pressure onto the door which will flex the door and potentially make it hard to close. The seal should just touch the door.
- Ensure to fit the screws in the centre of the fixing holes, this will allow you some adjustment room.
- The silicone seal is durable however, it can be punctured by the tip of a driver. To avoid this pilot drill the jamb first, this will also make it easier to ensure the screws fit in the centre of the slot.
- When fixing onto a metal door jamb we suggest you use a centre punch to mark the place of fixings on the metal. Use the drill or some of the self drilling screws to make the threaded fixing holes. Then fit the RP78 taking care to keep the driver tip on the screw head.
- Pair with an RP35 for the door seal along with a RP4B treadplate.
Delivery
Q: Can I collect my order?
A: Yes, you can. Once your order is ready, we will send you a Ready for Pickup email with full collection details.
Please note: pickup is from Preston, Victoria — not Prestons, NSW.
Q: Why is courier delivery so expensive?
A: Because this is a bulky product, freight costs are higher than for standard parcel items. We know that is not the most exciting news of the day, and we are always working to keep delivery costs as fair and reasonable as possible.
Q: Why can’t I choose Australia Post?
A: This product is too large for Australia Post, so it needs to travel with a specialist courier that handles oversized items safely.
Q: When will my order be despatched?
A: Most orders are despatched within 2–3 business days.
Q: Will I get tracking?
A: Yes. Once your order has been booked with the courier, you will receive a tracking number so you can keep an eye on its journey.
Please note: if your order includes multiple items, they may arrive in separate parcels at no extra shipping cost.
Q: When will my order arrive?
A: Your order will be delivered by a specialist courier for oversized goods. This is not an express service, so delivery times can vary depending on your location and the time of year.
Delays are more likely during busy periods such as winter, Christmas and end of financial year.
Q: Will my order be left if no one is home?
A: Yes. Standard courier deliveries are sent as Authority to Leave. That means if no one is home when the courier arrives, your parcel may be left at your address.
If that is not suitable, please contact us when placing your order so we can discuss other options.
Q: What if my order arrives damaged?
A: Please open and inspect your order as soon as it arrives. If anything has been damaged in transit, let ecoMaster know immediately.
Damage claims must be lodged within 48 hours of delivery. After that window, we may not be able to submit a claim with the carrier.
Q: What if my order goes missing in transit?
A: If your order seems overdue, we will follow it up with the courier on your behalf. If it cannot be located, we will arrange a replacement.
Q: What if my order is stolen after delivery?
A: If your parcel is stolen after it has been delivered, please report the theft to the police.
Q: How can I reduce freight costs?
A: Oversized freight can be expensive, especially for items over 1.5 metres long. To help keep costs down, you may wish to:
- Combine all long items into one order
- Share freight costs with a neighbour
- Collect your order from Preston, Victoria
- Use a more central delivery address if you live in a regional or rural area
We know freight costs can be frustrating, especially outside metro areas, and we will always do our best to help you find the most practical option.

What is a draught excluder?
A draught excluder is a device that seals the gap at the bottom of your door to stop unwanted air, dust, noise, and even pests from sneaking in or out. It’s one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency—especially in older homes with gaps you can feel (or even see!).
Why do you recommend Raven draught excluders over other brands?
We’ve tested them all—and Raven comes out on top for performance, durability, and long-term reliability. While they might cost a little more upfront, Raven products last for years, not months. That means less replacing, less frustration, and more value over time. Raven is the draught excluder we installed on our own home, 20+ years ago. Its still there - working - effectively.
Why is Raven more expensive than what I can buy at a hardware store?
Because it’s built to last. Raven products are made with superior materials and are engineered to perform in real Aussie conditions—heat, cold, wind, and rain. Some carry a BAL (bushfire) rating and some carry acoustic ratings, so you’re not just buying a seal—you’re investing in comfort, safety, and peace of mind.
Are cheaper draught stoppers just as good?
Not really. Cheaper options might seem like a bargain, but they often fall off, lose shape, or stop sealing within months, or never work at all. You end up replacing them again and again. With Raven, you buy it once—and it just works, year after year.
Which Raven product is right for my door?
That depends on the size of the gap and the type of door. We’ve done the hard work for you with clear guides and curated product options. Or try Find and Fix My Draughts—it’s our easy tool to help you choose the perfect product for your home.
Can I install Raven products myself?
Yes! Most are DIY-friendly, and we provide installation tips and videos to walk you through it. If you’re comfortable using a drill or screwdriver, you’ll get a clean, professional result—and a draught-free door in no time. If you are not comfortable with DIY, contact us for a referral to a trusted draught proofing technician in your area.
