They actually make a single track design specifically for your type of door. Search Amazon for this exact part number "B07GMPR875" - just as an example. That's really what you should use! Otherwise, I typically like to staple felt strips on in layers on the sides of the door frame where the door would close against if necessary. Felt works nicely for keeping the cool air from getting in while keeping your door snug when closed.

Hope this helps.

Looking at that Amazon one, it seems I can get a double track one, but shave a bit off each side to fit them into a single track like they do in the images on Amazon no?

Im not real sure on that one! I would say it's unlikely, just based on my experience with replacing them. If they aren't just the right size they can be extremely difficult to slide all the way across without getting hung up, ripping, or coming out of the track and having to start over.

I would recommend trying to find the single track one that fits your door and it'll go smooth as butter, but you can surely give a double track a shot if your up for a good challenge :-)

Closer inspection seems like there IS a second track, but that it just bent over time from the door being slammed shut... maybe with a second set of hands it'll work. And if not, I'll do the single track method!
