"We’ve gotten all the area all prepped around the door to install the new weatherstripping. What you want to do is close your door and then you’re going to measure it. And just make sure that you measure all the way down to the corner. Measure all the way up into the top corner. And then we’re going to lay it out on our weatherstripping and cut it also. And you want to lay out one piece at a time. Do this one, and do the one on the side, and then the top one. And then just continue all the way through it- get a knife, a box cutter, and cut the vinyl strip. And that’s the way that you would measure and cut your new weatherstripping for your back exterior door. "
