Full threshold weatherstripping consists of a length of material (usually metal with vinyl gaskets) fastened to the floor to close the gap between the floor and the bottom of the door, plus ramp-like strips along both the interior and exterior sides of the piece under the door. This type of unit thus serves both as a threshold and as weatherstripping.
