I have some door weatherstripping that I'd like to acquire more of. I can't seem to find this type anywhere, so some nomenclature or a brand name would really help. Here are some pictures. It almost looks like an accordion and looks to fit on 1/4" stop molding, and extends up to a 1/2" from the stop molding to the door. As you may guess, I have another door in the house who's frame stop molding is a 1/4" (if that) with a sizable gap between the door and the stop molding. If this exact type can't be identified, does anyone have a recommendation? Something adhesive that can just stick to the stop molding would be best.

There's also a different type on the hinge side of the door as pictured below.

I feel sure Joe is right but there are peel and stick options if we are both wrong.

If some dummy painted the jamb with the WS in place you may need pliers to remove it. Normally you just start at the top or bottom and pull straight away from the door.

Simple way to find out.
Do as suggested and pull out on the bottom with a pair of plyers.
Most likely it's going to have what sort of looks like a a bees stingers barbs holding it in place.
Is it a metal door by chance?

Looks like Therma Tru weather stripping for their metal doors. Top and strike side is a little different from the hinge side. Look on your door hinges and see if they say Therma Tru
