What’s the rubber weatherstripping piece for double doors called?

Asked by SunnyDaze42
I'm in the process of replacing the weatherstripping on my patio's double doors but can't seem to find this specific rubber piece anywhere online. I need help identifying it! There's a trim piece attached to the door that the bottom weather stripping meets up with, and without this black piece, there's a gap. I've tried searching for terms like 'double door post', 'trim weatherstripping', and 'foot' but haven't had any luck. There's an image linked here: https://imgur.com/a/lHJzHO8. Any ideas what it might be called? Thanks a lot!

You’re probably looking for a mullion seal since that’s the bar between the doors. That should help fill the gap!

SunnyDaze42: Appreciate the tip! I checked into mullion seals, but it seems like all I could find was foam tape for the long face. Luckily, my door can take standard kerf door seals there, so it's snug. I tried finding a mullion end cap and a mullion foot seal but came up short.

That piece is known as an astragal boot, or sometimes it’s called an astragal threshold seal. Just a heads up, depending on the manufacturer, you might need to buy a whole new astragal to get the right seal.

I’d recommend calling the door’s manufacturer with the part number. I’ve had success finding hard-to-locate pieces online just by providing that info.
