New bottom, side and top seals that keep out rain, drafts, dust and pests.
Weatherstripping is the unsung hero of a garage door. Seals along the bottom, sides and top keep out rain, leaves, dust, drafts and small animals. They also quiet the door when it closes. Over time they crack, flatten and tear, and daylight begins to show around the edges. Homeowners in Nashville ask for new seals when they notice drafts, water or bugs coming in.
We inspect the full perimeter of the door. We replace the bottom seal with the right profile for your retainer, install new vinyl or rubber stops on the sides and top and adjust the door so it closes tightly. We also look at the floor and the threshold, since an uneven floor can defeat even a new seal. In some cases we recommend a threshold seal to close a gap under the door. Seals are easy to overlook because they fail slowly. A quick walk around the closed door on a bright day, looking for light at the edges, tells you a lot. If you can see daylight or feel a draft, call us and we will measure, match the profile and put in a set that fits.
The seal that meets the floor sees the most wear. We match the profile to your retainer and floor.
Vinyl or rubber stops press against the door edges, and we adjust them for a firm but not tight fit.
A raised strip on the floor helps stop water from running in when the slab slopes toward the garage.
A tight perimeter keeps out many insects and mice and cuts the dust blowing into the garage.
