Weather Seal Installation in Utah

Signs you need weather seal installation

• Daylight visible around the closed door
• Cracked, flattened, or brittle rubber at the bottom
• Water, snow, or leaves blowing under the door
• Drafts making an attached garage hard to keep warm
• Insects or rodents getting in at the door edges

How the work is done

1. 1

   Check the fit

   We inspect the seal, the retainer profile, and how squarely the door meets the floor before selecting materials.

2. 2

   Select the right seal

   Bottom seal, stop molding, top seal, or threshold is chosen for the actual gap and the slope of the slab.

3. 3

   Install cleanly

   Old seal and molding are removed, surfaces are cleaned, and new seals are fitted to compress evenly along the full width.

4. 4

   Verify the close

   The door is closed and checked for light gaps, and opener travel is adjusted if the new seal changes the down stop.

What affects the price

• Door width and the number of seal types needed
• Bottom seal, stop molding, top seal, or threshold
• Material grade and cold-weather flexibility
• Floor condition and how much of a gap must be closed

Weather Seal Installation questions

How often should a garage door bottom seal be replaced?

Most bottom seals last 3 to 7 years. Replace it as soon as the rubber is cracked, flattened, or letting in visible daylight.

How do I stop water coming under my garage door?

Start with a new bottom seal. If the slab is uneven or slopes toward the door, add a threshold seal bonded to the floor so the two surfaces meet.

Will new weather seals make the garage warmer?

They help meaningfully in an attached garage by cutting drafts at the largest opening in the house, though insulation in the door and walls does the heavier work.

What is stop molding?

Stop molding is the trim with an attached flap running down both sides and across the top of the opening. It seals the perimeter where the door meets the frame.
