Introduction
The thin strip of rubber along the bottom of your garage door does more work than almost any other component. When it fails, water, snow and rodents start finding their way in.
Key Points
- Bottom seal — the long rubber strip that compresses against the floor
- Perimeter weather stripping — the vinyl flange around the sides and top of the frame
- Threshold seal — a rubber barrier installed on the floor itself for older or uneven openings
What This Means For Homeowners
If you see daylight under your closed door, or you hear wind whistling around the edges in winter, the seals are due for replacement. The fix is inexpensive and usually takes well under an hour.
