How does a door draught excluder work?

A door draught excluder works to stop draughts from entering indoors through the gap at the bottom of the door. In a lot of houses, particularly older ones, door draughts are an ongoing issue. Even in a new home, you might have removed a carpet to reveal a wooden floor but there is now a gap between the door and the floor. That gap may seem small, but it lets in a steady stream of cold air into your home. The result? A room that feels cold and a heating system that must work a lot harder to maintain a warm home (and yes, that does mean higher heating bills). Not what you want in the middle of winter!

To stop any draughts, the solution is to fill the gap. And this is exactly what our door draught-proofing cushion does! By sitting at the bottom of a door it is a really simple and cost-effective solution to a draughty door.

Our door draught excluders are filled with Herdwick sheep wool. Our 90cm x 30cm door draught excluder cushions are not only larger than standard door draught stoppers but are also more robust. The weighted design allows the cushions to stay firmly in place, making them an efficient draught excluder. And they look great! Investing in a Chimney Sheep door draught excluder has been compared to sand-bagging your door against the cold – and we think that this is the perfect way to describe it

What is this door draught excluder made of?

The outer covers of our door draught excluders are made using organic cotton. As you’ll see, we make them in a range of colours and patterns to ensure there is something to suit most home décor styles.

The filling for our door cushions is Herdwick wool which we collect from local farms for our Chimney Sheep chimney draught excluders. We always end up with more wool than we need so it's perfect to use for filling these door draught excluders. 

Why is using organic cotton good for the environment?

The purpose of organic cotton farming is to eliminate highly toxic substances (like toxic hazardous pesticides) from the growing process which benefits both people and the planet. This process is natural. To do this, farmers go back to the ‘old fashioned’ way of doing things by using natural systems and cycles to help grow crops. This includes crop rotation, green manures, no-till methods and composting. All of this makes the soil healthy which leads to better crop harvests without the need for harsh and potentially harmful chemicals.

Non-organic cotton farming relies on synthetic chemicals to grow such as nitrogen fertilisers and artificial pesticides, many of which are fossil-fuel based (and we all know what they do to the environment…). Removing these chemical inputs not only reduces the use of fossil fuels but also means that biodiversity can improve. This results in more bugs, bees, birds and worms! Any pest control that is used is completely natural and is only permitted under very restricted circumstances. You can read more about organic cotton here.

 

What are the benefits of using wool in this door draught excluder?

We use wool as the filling to our door draught excluders. Wool is a natural product. Sheep spend their lives grazing and growing wool. This is clipped in the summer when it’s hot for their welfare. Then it all grows back in time to keep them warm in the winter as it is a natural insulator. This makes it the perfect material to keep our homes warm!

It also has remarkable properties that enable it to absorb high volatile compounds (VOC’s) such as formaldehyde. Studies have shown that VOC’s bind permanently to the wool fibre, so they absorb it and never release it. Wool has been used to clean up environments where there are high levels of VOC’s. Having wool around your home will make it a cleaner, healthier and better environment to live in.

 

What other ways can I draught-proof my home?

Draught-proofing your home will make your home more energy-efficient which will reduce your gas bills (or electricity bills depending on your heating system!) and make your home a little bit greener.

If you have an open chimney, we always suggest starting there! An open chimney is often the biggest source of heat loss, actively sucking warm air out of your home. To stop this, you’ll need to use a chimney blocker of some sort which will stop that lovely warm air from escaping. This can be done with something like our fantastic Chimney Sheep® draught excluders. We don’t recommend chimney pillows or duvets to block your chimney as they don’t work particularly well and can cause damp issues!

Some draughts aren’t quite as obvious as a giant chimney and they can often be quite hard to detect with the naked eye. Something like our Smoke Pencil will help you to detect draughts. Depending on what draughts you find, will depend on what measures you need to take to draught-proof your home. Doors, random wall gaps, windows, keyholes, letterboxes are all common draughty areas. To fix these, you can look at our range of draught-excluders which include our wool door and window tape, wool gap filler, keyhole covers and more!

Great for puppies- have purchased several times
Size: X-Small
I have purchased this toy for a couple of the puppies in my life and they always love it. It’s not noisy, it’s made for puppies to chew (so it’s not too hard), and it’s fun for them to carry around with the different keys and key ring. A little pricey, but it always lasts a very long time- longer than they are a puppy!

Safe and Entertaining Chew Toy
Size: Medium
My dog absolutely loves this toy! She gets hours of chewing time out of it, and I feel so much better knowing the keys are made of a material that’s gentle on her teeth. Unlike harder toys that can chip teeth, this one is durable yet safe, and it keeps her happily entertained. Definitely a great choice for any dog that loves to chew.

Had a 6mo. old teething (English Bulldog) & this has entertained her for 9 mo.!
Size: Medium, Size: Medium
A chew toy lasting over 6 mo. is generally very good, for this breed & this brand! I kept it in her cage at night, so she wouldn't get board & start chewing on her paws. BC I felt it was a safe toy to use in this manner. "It was safe for my teething Bulldog." "Much, much better than other chew toys from this brand!" Others such as the Orange Pretzel they absolutely love! However, they have always splintered into very sharp edges of plastic, which cause the dogs mouth's to bleed (pokes their gums) & then NEED THROWN AWAY! This Key Chain Chew Toy was "really good" compared to other Nylabone brand chew toys, I have purchased! My girls mouth did not bleed from chewing on it:) "So, I am very pleased with this teething ring!" & would buy it again! Notice how the plastic splinters on the ends? Once the toy gets to his point I feel it is definitely time to be replaced! I would recommend this chew toy for a teething med. sized dog! The one I purchased was fairly large. & stayed together safely:) This is the only Nylabone Chew Toy I would ever, leave in a crate at night, thus far! Good Job Nylabone!
