Hi I've just bought my 1st tent with a ground sheet is sewn in. The only problem is the bottom of the doors are secured by a toggle and not a zip as I originally thought.
Would self adhesive velcro strips work? If not, any other suggestions? Thank you

We've used self adhesive velcro on the bottom of our door on our Kampa Kielder, works really well to stop any draughts.

Yes, it works pretty well. Used it on our Rydal 600 for the same reason.
