When it’s time to replace the seal on the bottom of your garage door, you need to be sure that you buy the right type of seal. Standard aluminum garage doors and wood garage doors require different types of bottom seals. Aluminum garage doors typically have an aluminum or plastic retainer on the bottom of the door that holds the weather seal in place. However, wood garage doors use rubber bottom seals that are nailed into place.
Always make sure to carefully measure the width of the garage door before making a purchase. For the best performance, your garage door bottom seal needs to fill any gaps between the door and the garage floor. When not installed correctly, your bottom seal may still leave gaps.
The bottom weather seal on a commercial rolling steel door can be a little more complex than a residential garage door. The bottom seal on most commercial rolling steel doors are held into place by the doors’ bottom bar. As you work to replace the bottom seal, pay special attention when pulling the old seal off off the bottom of the door. Some rolling steel doors employ the use of pneumatic or electric safety devices.
Pneumatic hoses can often be pulled from the old bottom seals and placed inside a new seal. However, if you find that there are wires built into your bottom seal, you may want to give a professional a call. Your door may have an electric safety edge and the new device may have to be custom made.
Contact our team if there’s ever any questions about a garage door safety device. Our highly trained technicians can quickly diagnose the issue and outline your options going forward.
Often, our customers install new garage doors onto existing properties. In some cases, we remove old wood garage doors that have begun to sag badly. Due to the sagging, many homeowners do not realize that their concrete has settled and become uneven. The old garage door would conform to the settling of the concrete. When we install a new garage door, it becomes apparent that there is a big problem.
Depending on the situation, you may be able to use a large garage door bottom seal and threshold combination to help bridge the gap. While this can work for slightly uneven floors, when concrete starts sagging and creating large gaps, a more permanent solution is required. To accomplish this, our team now recommends customers explore PolyLevel® products.
We’re proud to have helped so many homeowners and business owners in the Charlotte area with their garage door repair issues. Our well-trained technicians only use top-of-the-line seals and thresholds to exceed expectations and maintain a consistent level of quality on every project we undertake.
Schedule an appointment to have your garage door bottom seal evaluated. We’ll cover all your options and will never install any parts or move forward with a repair without your approval.
