It was suggested to me by someone that for my old inswing door, I should replace the threshold (I used a commercial aluminum one) and use a door sweep on the inside instead of a door seal that goes between bottom of door and seal. I was told that the seals that attach to the bottoms of doors don’t hold up and aren’t very good.
I was wondering if there is a concensus regarding which is better, a door sweep or seal? Or should they be used in conjunction? I did just the neoprene door sweep for one of my doors and it seems to let lots do dust onto the threshold up to the sweep. The door in the photo has a stainless kick I plate I installed, and a gap on the bottom since there is no bottom seal. On the inside it has a neoprene door sweep installed against the threshold.
I have one more door to do and debating the course to take.
