If the door has an old seal, unscrew it, and take it off. Make sure the width of the new door seal matches the width of the under door weather strip by measuring both. If the door did not come with a seal and you need to create a cut in it, measure how much you need to remove, mark the cut with a straightedge, and then use a circular saw to remove the material. Sand the bottom edge smooth if you do not have to cut the door down to size.
