How To Seal Your Roller Garage Door

If you've noticed your garage is becoming draftier, it might be time to replace the seals on your roller garage door. Besides keeping drafts out, garage door seals also block windblown debris and help maintain a stable temperature. But they do become worn and damaged and will need to be replaced occasionally.

The Importance of Proper Sealing

A well-sealed garage door is crucial for several reasons:

• Keeps out dust, water, and pests: Protects stored items, whether it’s your car or other valuables, from potential damage.
• Improves thermal efficiency: By sealing air leaks, the door helps maintain a stable temperature, especially if the garage is attached to your home affecting heating and cooling costs.
• Reduces noise transfer: Particularly relevant if you live near a busy road or use your garage frequently.

Assessing Your Current Garage Door Seal

Before replacing any seals, inspect their condition. Look closely at:

• Bottom seal: Often the first to wear due to constant floor contact. Watch for cracks, gaps, or brittleness.
• Weather stripping: Along the sides and top. Similar signs of damage mean it’s time for new seals.

Types of Seals and Their Importance

There are a few kinds of roller door seals, each tackling different issues:

• Bottom Seals: Seal the gap between the door and garage floor. Common materials include rubber, vinyl, or brush-based designs, offering different protection levels.
• Threshold Seals: Placed on the garage floor rather than the door, adding extra protection from water and debris when used with a bottom seal.
• Brush Seals: Ideal for blocking dust and small particles, placed along the top, bottom, and sides.
• Weatherstripping: Applied along the door’s perimeter to keep out moisture and air for a comprehensive seal.

Choosing the Right Seal

Several factors like climate, your primary concerns (e.g., water, noise, temperature), and your door’s material determine which seal is best. Ensure the chosen seal is compatible with your door’s design for an effective seal and smooth operation. For personalized advice, consider contacting your local B&D Accredited Dealer.

Getting Professional Help

While some homeowners feel at ease replacing seals themselves, seeking professional assistance can be beneficial. Experts can:

• Recommend the best seal based on your needs
• Ensure proper installation
• Inspect other components, spotting potential issues early

If you’re not sure where to start, reach out to us to schedule a professional consultation.

The Value of Regular Servicing

Having your roller garage door serviced yearly by a professional helps maintain safety and performance. During servicing:

• All seals are checked and replaced if needed
• Moving parts get lubrication
• A general door inspection can catch and fix minor problems early

This proactive approach extends the life of your door and keeps it working at its best. Schedule a garage door service for peace of mind.

Well-maintained seals on your roller garage door ensure it stays functional and efficient year-round. Remember, a small effort in maintenance can lead to significant benefits with energy savings and security.
