It’s that time of year again… Although, for as dry as it’s been, and as
much as we welcome the rain, we don’t necessarily welcome it into our garage!
Here are some ways you can prevent wind and rain from
invading your home through your garage.
Bottom Garage Door Weather Seal:
Most of the time if there is water entering your garage,
it’s due to a worn Bottom Seal or an uneven slab.
The garage door may seal tightly on one side and not so well on the other. An old, worn bottom seal on your door may
need to be replaced to ensure a tight seal all the way across the opening.
You can also try some other alternatives to seal larger gaps
under your door. For example, a larger
Bulb Bottom Seal can be installed. Or a
Garage Door Threshold can also be an option when you want to block water from
entering. The rubber Threshold is glued
down to the cement and the garage door sits on top of it. You can even use the larger seal and
threshold together if needed.
Vinyl Climate Seal:
For applications where you are trying to prevent driving
wind and rain from entering your garage from the side of the garage door,
you’ll want to seal the perimeter of your garage door opening with Climate
Seal. This vinyl trim can be found in a
number of different colors. However, White or Almond are most readily
available. This simple addition to your
garage door can not only seal the opening extremely well, but it also offers a
nice finished wood textured look.
All of these weather sealing options are available through
Hanson Overhead Garage Door Service.
