FAQ

Frequenty asked questions

Q: What is a Raven RP3 Automatic Drop Down Excluder?
A: The RP3 is an automatic, cam-activated, drop down draught excluder. This is a light duty and inexpensive door draught proofing solution.  By far, it is the most popular and most successful draught excluder available in Australia. 

    Q: How does it work?
    A: The automatic drop down wiper blade is pressed down onto the doorstep as the door is closed by the newly styled cam that is fitted to the latch side.  A spring mechanism lifts the wiper blade clear of the doorstep as the door opens.   That is what makes it 'automatic'.  It automatically opens and closes as the door is operated.  

    Q: Will it affect the operation of my doors?
    A: This product should not prevent your door from its natural function, if you can no longer open or close your door after installation, then it may have been installed incorrectly.

    Q: How is the RP3 installed?
    A: The "How to" page provides an installation video plus essentials Pro Tips to ensure you get a great job. [Learn More

    Q: Does the RP3 Draught Excluder provide a weather proof seal for rain as well?
    A: The RP3 will provide SOME protection against water ingress.  The level of protection depends upon whether the door step itself is flat, and therefore the RP3 will be able to make firm contact.  The RP3 will not hold back flood waters, but should (with the correct fitting and a treadplate in place) withstand rain.

    What is a draught excluder?

    A draught excluder is a device that seals the gap at the bottom of your door to stop unwanted air, dust, noise, and even pests from sneaking in or out. It’s one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency—especially in older homes with gaps you can feel (or even see!).

    Why do you recommend Raven draught excluders over other brands?

    We’ve tested them all—and Raven comes out on top for performance, durability, and long-term reliability. While they might cost a little more upfront, Raven products last for years, not months. That means less replacing, less frustration, and more value over time.  Raven is the draught excluder we installed on our own home, 20+ years ago.  Its still there - working - effectively.

    Why is Raven more expensive than what I can buy at a hardware store?

    Because it’s built to last. Raven products are made with superior materials and are engineered to perform in real Aussie conditions—heat, cold, wind, and rain. Some carry a BAL (bushfire) rating and some carry acoustic ratings, so you’re not just buying a seal—you’re investing in comfort, safety, and peace of mind.

    Are cheaper draught stoppers just as good?

    Not really. Cheaper options might seem like a bargain, but they often fall off, lose shape, or stop sealing within months, or never work at all. You end up replacing them again and again. With Raven, you buy it once—and it just works, year after year.

    Which Raven product is right for my door?

    That depends on the size of the gap and the type of door. We’ve done the hard work for you with clear guides and curated product options. Or try Find and Fix My Draughts—it’s our easy tool to help you choose the perfect product for your home.

    Can I install Raven products myself?

    Yes! Most are DIY-friendly, and we provide installation tips and videos to walk you through it. If you’re comfortable using a drill or screwdriver, you’ll get a clean, professional result—and a draught-free door in no time.  If yo are not comfortable with DIY, contact us for a referral to a trusted draught proofing technician in your area.

    Fixed Draughty Front Door

    Despite having seals on our front door it still leaked cold air into the hallway keeping it cold. I had enough of this and after an internet search found draught dodger's and fitted it to the door and it fixed it. Not only that the front door is easier to unlock as the old seal was applying a lot of pressure to the door despite not sealing properly. The only problem was the catching of the hand on the seal when opening/closing the door which was fixed by replacing the round handle with a lever style handle. The hallway now is warm so I can recommend draught dodgers.

    Dear Roy,

    We are thrilled to hear that our product has successfully fixed the draughty front door in your home. We understand the frustration of a cold hallway and are happy to know that our product has helped to make it warmer. Thank you for choosing our draught dodgers, and we hope to continue providing solutions for your home.
