draft excluder

Under-door insulator strip

A draft excluder is a device placed at the bottom of a door or window to block cold air from entering a room.

The simplest form is a fabric tube filled with stuffing that lies against the gap beneath a door: She made a draft excluder from an old pair of tights.

Also called a draft stopper.
