Customer photo review of Thermal Aluminum Astragal (Bronze Stainable)

Was very easy to install and fit with minor adjustments but stain was still very wet after 6 hours of drying hopefully it dries overnight to add another coat

Super easy installation! Replaced an older wooden astragal that had been shredded by a cat. Took stain nicely, and looks great; installation took about 30 minutes, including the time, it took me to trim the piece down to fit the door. Great product!

Customer photo review of Thermal Aluminum Astragal (Bronze Stainable)

I used an expresso , all in one gel coat stain for the outward facing part of the astralga and left the inside face unstained to match my oak tiles to my entrance way. Looks really good. Install was quick and easy. Thanks Pease!!

Thermal Aluminum Astragal (Bronze Stainable)

It was all fine except I don't understand what I received. I thought I paid extra for a bronze finish. The finish was a wood grain. Not what I thought I ordered.

I bought this astragal to replace the wooden one on my entry French door. With the original astragal, I could see light and feel the cold or hot air coming through the gap with the size of the gap changing according to weather. I think the wooden doors are from the original 1970's construction and are in excellent condition. I hand never heard of Pease before but after looking at their information online, I felt they knew what they were talking about. I was not disappointed. The astragal arrived without damage and on time. It was the correct depth for the door. The 80 inch length allowed me to trim down to size to allow me to adjust according to my irregularities. I now have a sealed gap between my doors. One thing I find challenging is inserting the strip in the channel. The material is so stiff. I will try squeezing with a pliers and inserting. Anyway, thanks Pease for having the product I so needed.

It fit perfectly. I tried to stain it but the stain didn't take, I opted for paint instead. It is a project I have been wanting to do for many years. I am very happy to finally have it done. The door closes and seals so much better now. I am very pleased with the outcome.

Not only was the customer service amazing,, the shipping was exactly as Pease suggested,, but the product could not have fit and replaced our old door trim any better. We could not be happier!
