weatherstripping exterior door gaps

Hey all,

Both exterior doors on this house have gaps around all their edges -- especially at the bottom, where there's a good inch that lets cold air through! They're old doors with glass panes and I'd like to keep them if possible. Any suggestions for weatherizing these?

Thanks!
Noam

They used to sell a strip which fastened to the door bottom that automatically sealed the bottom space. It was made of aluminum and had a mechanism that when the door closed, a pin was pushed in that allowed the internal weatherstripping to drop down.
