Hello,

we recently purchased a house. Unfortunately, there is a missing type of cover at our front door, which I would describe as U-shaped plastic profiles.

I have already searched extensively online but haven’t found anything suitable. There is also no manufacturer label on the door, so at the moment I don’t know where to get these profiles from or what exactly to search for.

Could you possibly help me out and tell me what these covers are called? Please see the attached pictures.

Many thanks and best regards
Klaus

So, you would recommend removing it and taking it to a paint shop?
Are matching plastic U-profiles not available for purchase anywhere?

Since this is a retrofit DIY solution, I don’t expect to find “matching” profiles in the sense that there wouldn’t be any fitting issues at some point (in interaction with the profile of the door/side panels). I would prefer powder coating — but what a paint shop does will ultimately achieve a similar quality level. So, if you don’t have an aluminum window manufacturer nearby, then go to a paint shop.
