draft excluders

Door bottom insulators

Draft excluders are strips or tubes placed along the bottom of doors or windows to block cold air from entering a room.

They may be rigid or flexible, filled with sand or foam, and often take the form of fabric tubes that lie against the gap between door and floor.

Also called draft stoppers in American English, where draught excluders is the British spelling.
