Hi.
I am looking to soundproof my bedroom door from noisy housemates. After many hours of research, I found this Google "ehow.com/how_2303573_sound-proof-bedroom-door.html"
among other things.
I a door sweep and maybe acoustic tape is suitable for me.
1)DOOR SWEEP... Should I get specifically an acoustic one? If so where can I can one for a DIYer-the ones online seemed very expensive and professional- I am only looking for a cheap and cheeful solutions, nothing TOO good.
Also are they easy to install.
NB. currently I am stuffing a towel under the door
2)Foam gasket tape..
Im not sure about the terminology, can I just get foam tape, or acoustic gasket tape specifically? More importantly how do I install it, do I stick it on the door or the jamb? Are these sold at hardware shops?
The simple, effective and cheap way to sound proof a door is to fix another door on the other side of the frame.
Cheap light weight doors can be obtained from all the large DIY stores
