What happens here

The presenter demonstrates the installation process for the weather strip. He shows how the weather strip is designed to simply 'press right in' to the existing channel of the door frame. He then takes the weather strip and positions it along the side of the door frame, extending it down to the bottom. To ensure a perfect fit, he marks the weather strip with his finger at the exact point where it needs to be trimmed to match the length of the door frame. He states that he will use scissors to cut it to the marked length.

Goal: Accurately measure and prepare the new weather strip for a custom fit in the door frame.
