The Telltale Signs of a Bad Weather Seal

A failing seal is easy to spot. The damage is often visible, and you can feel the results.

Symptoms of a Failing Seal:

This is the clearest sign. With the garage door closed, look at the bottom and sides. If you can see daylight shining through, your seal is gone.
You find rodent droppings, chewed items, or see insects inside the garage. A ripped or chewed bottom seal is a common entry point.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is water still getting in with a new seal?

If you have a new seal but water still gets in, the problem is likely your concrete. The garage floor may be sloped towards the door. In this case, you may need a "threshold seal" in addition to the bottom seal.

What's the difference between rubber and vinyl seals?

We almost always recommend EPDM rubber. It stays flexible in extreme cold and lasts longer. Vinyl seals tend to get hard and brittle in winter, leading to cracks.

Can you stop mice from getting in?

Yes. A standard, well-fitted seal is the best defense. We also offer special rodent-proof seals that are reinforced with a material that rodents cannot chew through.

Should I replace the seal on the sides and top too?

If you can see daylight around the perimeter, yes. Replacing the stop molding on the sides and top is the finishing touch to make your garage completely sealed.
