Garage Door Strip ReplacementWinter is coming, and if you have any water seeping in around your Garage Door it may be time to look at having your Bottom Seal Replaced. This is an important component of the Garage Door and is often times overlooked due to the idea that it isn’t really that big of a deal. Most times this is an inexpensive repair that can save a lot of headaches that come from water damage, ice in the winter time, or damage to your bottom section. In Little Canada, MN we had a customer that was having a problem with water seeping in to their Garage and it was causing damage to the wooden section and also just creating puddles of water in their Garage. We were able to replace the old seal with a new Aluminum Retainer and a three inch thick Bottom Seal.

Different Types of Bottom Seal

There are many different types of Garage Door Bottom Seals that may be in use depending on what type of door you have and the material it is made from. We want our customers to always have options to what type, color, and thickness of Bottom Seal you may need. At the Little Canada location this customer had a thinner wood door with an outdated seal that only added a quarter of an inch of thickness at the bottom; not only that, but the section did not have an Aluminum Retainer which will give added protection from the elements. We were able to install an inch and three eighths Aluminum Retainer to the bottom section of the Garage Door and then slide a standard T-shaped three inch thick Bottom Seal. After the installation we tested the new bottom seal by pouring water around the bottom section and there was no longer any water seeping in.
