Australia’s #1 Draught Sealing System for Sash Windows

Reduce rattles, draughts, and outside noise while improving the thermal efficiency of your timber double-hung sash windows — all without costly window replacement. Proudly Australian manufactured, with pickup available in Sydney.

🪟 Why Choose This Kit Over Others?

This isn’t just another DIY draught sealing kit — it’s been designed specifically for timber sash windows and built to last. Here’s what makes it superior:

Australian Made & Owned – Support local manufacturing and get reliable quality with fast Sydney pickup options.

Brush Seal System – Uses high-performance brush seals, not compression seals (which should never be used on sliding windows). The brush system allows smooth sash movement while maintaining an airtight seal.

Plastic Fin for Complete Seal – The plastic fin inside the brush is the key to creating a perfect barrier. It’s this fin that forms the true weather seal — make sure it’s in contact with the timber when installed.

Kerf-Fit Brush – The brush strips are installed into the stop beads via a kerf slot, creating a snug, professional fit superior to surface-mounted options.

Ready-to-Install – Supplied pre-assembled with brush and fin already inserted into the timber beading. Simply cut to size and install — no need to assemble the bead with carriers and brush.

DIY Friendly – Each kit contains everything needed to seal one double-hung sash window up to 2m high x 1m wide. Perfect for homeowners, builders, and restorers alike.

Installation:

Step by Step Instructions:


1. Remove the existing staff or stop beads. Start by running a knife around the edge of the beading to cut through the paint. Then use a flat pry bar or chisel to lever the stop bead off the frame. Top tip! Start in the middle and then work out towards the ends, the bead is more flexible in the middle.

2. Once the Stop Beads have been removed you can then start to remove the bottom sash.

3. Remove the existing parting beads. Use your knife around as much as the parting bead as possible to loosen any paint, then use the chisel or flat pry bar to lever the bead out of groove of the frame. Do this all the way around the frame making sure you remove the parting bead at the top of the sash also.

4.  Now it’s time to measure up. TOP TIP! Measure twice, cut once.Start with the top parting bead. Measure horizontally between the frame and add a few mm to this as you want the bead to go all the way across the head of the window.It is recommended to pre-drill your holes in the beads before nailing. Then fix the parting bead in position and nail in (40mm nails recommended).

5. Next, measure up for the side parting beads. Measure from the sill up to the parting bead you have just installed in step 4 above.

6. Cut your pieces for the left and right side then cut each in half at the halfway point. Make a pencil mark at the halfway point and cut. Top tip! Apply a small amount of superglue to the top and the bottom between the plastic and the brush of each parting bead to stop the pile moving.

7. Pre dill holes in the parting bead and nail into place.

8.  On the bottom half of the window install the parting bead so that the pile faces inwards. On the top half of the window switch the bead over so that the pile faces outwards. This will cushion the sashes and eliminate the gaps.

9.  Reinstall the bottom sash.

10.  Now measure up for your stop / staff beads. Install the beads. Push them to the bottom sash so that they close the gap but are not too tight, You want the gap filled but still be able to move the window up and down. As previously done with your parting beads, pre-drill your holes and nail into place.
