Make leaky wooden doors and windows weatherproof

When driving rain often moisture through the narrow cracks of wooden windows and doors occurs.

My remedy:

Clean the frame well, place a thick silicone sausage on the stop edges. Everything with a wide foil strip (best goes budgetary foil).
Close door or window.


After approx. 3 -5 days, depending on the weather and setting of the silicone, carefully open the window or the door.

Cut off protruding silicone with a sharp blade knife.

Now the window or the door is made weatherproof.
