Introduction
Welcome to the all new Sealmaster catalogue of Weather
Seals. We are delighted to introduce a new generation of
products including patented SmartSeal technology.The
SmartSeal range is the first to operate differently depending
on the weather. These seals use valves to optimise
performance by switching between air leakage and water
drainage modes depending on the weather conditions.
Other innovations include integral timber weather boards
with seals tucked discretely out of sight. Hidden and
simplified fittings make fitting easier and quicker.
The SmartSeal range is also the first to introduce covered
drainage troughs for better access and safety. The new
products featured in this catalogue exceed British Standards
because we believe their true value depends on the energy
savings they deliver over the life time of the building.

Performance
Sealmaster seals are engineered for the highest attainable
performance in air leakage and water permeability tests.
High performance delivers greater energy efficiency and a
longer working life - making Sealmaster products the obvious
choice for value long term.
Sealmaster seals are manufactured to fine tolerances using the
best materials available for each purpose. The aluminium
carriers are heat treated for added strength before being
anodised to the generous depth of 15 microns for added
durability. The blade and bulb inserts are made of Neoprene
(except the cushion insert in the Cyclone range which is
EPDM). The timber weatherboard sections of our door
threshold seals are available in softwood, redwood and English
oak.
We require all materials and components used in the
manufacturing process to meet relevant British Standards.
Great care is exercised by our manufacturing facility to ensure
qualilty is rigorously controlled and the products are finished
to the most exacting standards.
Accessibility
Sealmaster door threshold seals satisfy the requirements of
the Building Regulations for England & Wales (Doc M) and the
Housing Corporation's Guidance on New Build.

Sma rtSeal Technolog y
Sealing doors and windows from the weather is
more demanding than it might seem. Strong
winds create ‘pressure drops’ at doors and
windows where the air pressure difference
between inside and outside literally sucks water
and cold air into the building or forces warm
air to leak outside through any gaps and cracks
in the door or window.
Simpler designs of threshold seals (such as
Cyclone, pages 13 - 15) create an effective
barrier to the passage of air and water through
doorways but once rain has dripped from the
bottom of the door leaf or blown inside as the
door is used, there is no means for it to escape.
(at the expense of not draining water) or are
obliged to strike a balance between
performance on water-tightness and on air
leakage. SmartSeals overcome the problem by
switching the way they operate to give the best
performance whatever the weather.
Drain Trough Cover
(from above).
Neoprene blades wipe
water into grooves &
drain holes.
For door thresholds particularly exposed to
rainwater, Sealmaster developed the Watershed
range (pages 18 - 20) which incorporates
discrete troughs to collect dripping water and
channels droplets back outside.
The advantage of redirecting water back
outside came at a small cost to the seal’s air
leakage performance since air could leak back
through the water outlets. SmartSeal
technology (see pages 9 - 11) overcomes this
by including a one-way valve. This allows the
water to drain away whilst preventing cold air
and or droplets from being sucked back
through into the building.
Drain Trough Outlet
(from below).
One-way valve lets
water escape without
air leaking back in.
In heavy rain, SmartSeals collect surplus water
and drain it back outside. When gusts of wind
attempt to force air and water back through
the drainage outlets, they close until the
pressure of water inside the collection trough
rises above the air pressure outside to reopen
the outlets and enable water to drain away.
We called it SmartSeal Technology because the
products respond automatically to the
weather conditions as they change at the
threshold of each doorway.
Surplus water droplets at the bottom of the
door are wiped by the two elastomeric blades
in the timber (or aluminium) weatherboard
section of the seal through a semi-porous lid
into the collection trough. The inclusion of a lid
which allows the water through but keeps dirt
out cuts the risk of tripping presented by a
broad open channel and is easier for wheeled
traffic to negotiate.
The patented SmartSeal range is unique in
combining the latest sealing technology with
traditional timber weatherboards discretely.
Until now, threshold seals have tended to be
designed to perform best in air leakage tests

Ne w Development s
We are delighted to introduce a new and more advanced range of weather seals for doors and windows.
This is part of an intensive programme under way at Sealmaster to improve the performance and value of
the products and services we offer. Here are just some of the more recent developments.
New Ranges, New Features
The new Smartseal range introduces three new features. The drainage channels are covered with a water
permeable lid and the outlets are controlled with one-way valves for enhanced performance. The weather
board section is available in aluminium (silver or gold anodised as standard) or in timber. Most of the new
door threshold seals come with the option of an aluminium or integral timber weatherboard.
New Weather Seal Test Facility On Stream
With the installation of our new full sized rig, we can simulate extreme weather conditions for testing
prototypes under development. We test well beyond the performance levels required by British Standards.
The facility is easily adapted to develop products for unusual applications requiring the control of air
leakage, smoke, gases, water etc.
Antarctica – The Ultimate Challenge
The British Antarctic Survey monitors the ozone layer from the South Pole – in the most hostile weather
on the planet. Finding other products were not up to the task, BAS contacted Sealmaster for a solution to
protect researchers and computers in the SHARE command caboose (left) from the elements.
Design Council Selects Sealmaster (again)
Four Sealmaster products were selected by the Design Council in 1999 as Millennium Products - to
represent the most innovative in the UK. The four products mark key advances in the fire protection of
buildings using intumescent technology. (In 1968, the CoID selected our range of weather seals for a
Design Award.)
British Council Showcases Sealmaster Abroad
Of the 1,012 Milennium Products identified by the Design Council (see above) the British Council, the
Design Council and the Conran Design Group together chose Sealmaster Fireface as one of the top 120
British products now being showcased at international venues.

Improving Access
Designed from direct experience
During his later years, our founder was confined to a wheelchair. He used the experience to redesign
the range with low profile threshold sections, ramped for easy access and ribbed for extra grip. The
design principles he introduced have been retained in the new range – ensuring that Sealmaster seals
continue to improve rather than hinder access.
Design Considerations
Improving access to buildings goes beyond the use of low profile threshold sections, ramped at angles to
suit easy navigation by wheeled and pedestrian traffic. Correctly specified and fitted Sealmaster seals at
door stops, thresholds and on windows ensure low friction operation, thereby easing the operation of
doors and windows. For doorsets where space is at a premium, the use of seals with integral
weatherboards may narrow the door opening slightly. The problem can be overcome using the option in
the Cyclone range for external doors which excludes a weatherboard. See pages 13 to 15.
Brush Seals, Auto-Door Bottoms, Ramps etc.
For a comprehensive choice of brush seals, automatic door bottoms, cills, access ramps and self-adhesive
seals, please contact our Ventura Division on (01223) 837007 or see www.ventura.uk.com
Regulations & Guidelines on Accsess
All Sealmaster seals satisfy (or exceed) the standards for accessibility required by the Building
Regulations for England and Wales (Approved Document M) and by the Housing Corporation’s
Guidelines on New Build.

Design & Ma nuf acture
Whether you need to control airflow in the Channel
Tunnel, heat loss at the South Pole, build fire, smoke or
blast resistance into your buildings or require products to
be designed and produced for particularly challenging
applications, Sealmaster has 40 years of experience in
controlling the leakage of air, smoke, fire, noise, fumes, gases,
water & particles through apertures at your disposal.
Sealmaster has worked with the BBC to develop acoustic
seals for its studio doors.
With a wide range of aluminium profiles and elastomeric
inserts to choose from, it is often possible to put
non-standard combinations to novel use – for example to
form a neat frame for Raymond Blanc’s shower (above, left)
with seals built in. Usually we are able to advise without
charge on feasibility and costs at the outset. Occasionally
limited feasibility tests may be necessary to provide
accurate guidance.
For further assistance, please contact our Research and
Development Department.
Fitting
Even though Sealmaster seals are designed to be easily
fitted and come with simple, illustrated notes, we find a few
which have been fitted incorrectly. In the case of weather
seals, this is not just a waste of resources but could impede
the use of doors and windows – at best, an undesirable
outcome and at worst, a danger in the event of a fire.
5
Where fire doors or compartments must be protected
with fire and smoke seals but these have been wrongly
fitted, the risks to people could be very serious.
For further advice, please contact our Sales Department.
Technical Support
Seals are assessed for air leakage and watertightness on the test rig.
For advice on selecting the right products, technical data,
materials specifications, test results etc., our Technical
Department provides free phone support during office
hours on (01223) 832851. Alternatively, enquiries and
sketches can be faxed to us on (01223) 837215 or emailed

Our engineers are available to assist with site visits to solve
problems and advise on what solutions may be possible.
Our engineers have contributed to various technical
committees setting industry wide standards at national and
European levels. We also play an active role in the Design
Council’s Sharing Innovation Network.
Sealmaster engineers are called in to provide independent
third party reports and other forms of consultancy in
cases involving the penetration of apertures by air, smoke,
fumes, fire, water, light and noise.
Sealmaster Semina rs
To keep construction professionals up to date on legal and
technical developments in protecting buildings from the
weather, smoke and fire, we run various seminars. These
include Fire Safety Days at our main site and in-house
seminars tailored to your needs. Seminars are designed for
architects, fire safety officers and other construction
professionals. We don’t charge for seminars because
everyone benefits from better information on fire safety
and energy efficiency in buildings.
Our Seminars keep us in touch with the concerns and
experiences of the 2-3,000 guests who visit us each year.
Our standard 20 minute seminar modules range from the
principles of weather sealing doors & windows to the
role of intumescents in protecting fire doors and a
review of fire safety legislation, Codes of Practice etc.
Programmes may include guest speakers, buffet lunch, a
fire test or video presentation. For further details and a
booking form, please contact us for a copy of our
Seminars leaflet or email us at

features & benefits
The Cyclone threshold and contact strip combinations can be
used in most internal and external situations, including those with
a high degree of exposure requiring weather tight seals.
The Cyclone threshold and weatherboard combinations can only
be used on inward opening external doors that are sheltered
from wind driven rain.
With the contact strip combinations, the Cyclone can be used on
external doors to comply with Part M of the Building Regulations
to allow ease of access. It can also be used with the Blizzard seal
and other Sealmaster stop seals to achieve an exceptional acoustic performance.
The Cyclone threshold section is available in two low profile
versions, one being symmetrical for application on top of carpet
or vinyl floor finishes (section TE), the other has a flat face against
which carpet or vinyl can be finished neatly (section TD).
Specialist applications include rooms with a gas flood fire
suppression system installed. Studio and music room doors, as
well as interview rooms, where a high level of acoustic
performance is required and photographic dark rooms where a
light, tight seal is needed.

features & benefits
The range of threshold sections means that it is possible to finish
off a range of floor finishes neatly against this aluminium section.
The low profile of all the threshold sections ensures compliance
with Document M of the Building Regulations and ease of access.
The variety of weatherboard sections ensures that the seal can be
used on period and contemporary door designs. The channel
collects water that has managed to by-pass the rubber blade seals
and, through pre-drilled weep holes, this drains to the outside of
the building, ensuring a high level of performance.

neoprene seal inserts, is screw fixed to the required surface.
These screw fixings are then hidden by the cover section, which is
available in a choice of finishes to match the Sealmaster threshold
sections e.g. Blizzard SAS/089 matches Smartseal TAS/WAS (see
page 9).
Blizzard seals are effective in improving the acoustic performance
of an existing door.
The small and neat Blizzard sections may also be used to provide
effective sealing solutions for Windows.

SEM/002
A rebated, seal suitable for around windows and the head and
jambs of doors.
features & benefits
Deluge seals are designed to be rebated into the joinery making
them unobtrusive. They are particularly suitable for situations
where doors and window frames are to be replaced.
These stop seals, in conjunction with an appropriate door
threshold seal and meeting stile seals on double doors are
suitable for:
23
SEM/000
Deluge stop seals consist of an aluminium carrier and a wide
range of straight blade, angle blade and compression bulb inserts
to suit the applications illustrated above and many others.
For heavy compression doorsets, the tubular bulb insert is most
suitable. For standard applications, straight or angled blades with a
crossbar next to the carrier are usually most suited. For ease of
access and low friction operation, the straight and angled blades
without crossbars are usually recommended.
how to specify
e.g. Sealmaster Deluge SEM/002 to suit door / window in ……mm
high by …..mm wide opening.
•
Situations where smoke / gas / air leakage is important.
leakage rates as low as 0.47m3 / hour / metre at 25pa
pressure have been achieved when tested.
•
Dark rooms used for general photographic work on single
swing doors.
•
Situations where noise penetration is important, where up
to Rw=10db reduction in sound transmission can be
achieved.
