Heavy-Duty Garage Door Bottom Seal Kit

Maintaining a proper garage door seal and weather seal is crucial to keeping out snow, leaves, water, and other elements. If you have an uneven garage floor, using a larger bottom seal can help close off gaps. Understanding the importance of garage door weather stripping is essential.

Whether you use your garage for storing your cars, as a workshop, or as a storage room, ensuring it stays dry is crucial. However, if you've noticed it's colder or hotter than usual, or if it seems dirtier despite regular sweeping, and the brightness has changed, it's time to consider installing garage door weather stripping.

Typically, it's advisable to remove the existing retainer from the bottom of the garage door. In some cases, you can install the new retainer over the existing one, but it's crucial to mount the new retainer securely to the bottom of the garage door.

The BOWSEN garage door weather stripping kit offers high-performance sealing and easy DIY installation, adapting to the -40°F to 240°F temperature range. The EPDM synthetic rubber is heavy-duty and high-quality, with excellent resistance to extreme temperatures and conditions.

The ribbed side to the floor further helps prevent the weather seal from freezing to the floor, ensuring it passes low-temperature flexibility, aging resistance, and bottom anti-seepage testing.

The kit includes 41.3-inch flat aluminum retainers, which can be butted together for a seamless finish. The square-cut ends make it easy to cut and modify the retainers to fit your needs. This solution is great for wood garage doors and any type of door with a flat bottom.

To install the BOWSEN weather stripping, you'll need a few tools, including silicone sealant, a screwdriver, an electric hand drill, and adhesive tape. The installation process is straightforward, with three quick methods:

1. Apply silicone sealant to strengthen the sealing between the door and tracks.
2. Use tape to hold the tracks in place, then install them with screws.
3. Install the rubber on one side, squeezing it in and pressing with your fingers to clip the T-end into the track.

You can also use a screwdriver for auxiliary installation, locking the seal into the tracks and installing the rubber patiently, step by step. After the first length is installed, continue installing sections until you reach the other end of the door, trimming, cutting, or notching the last length as needed.

This BOWSEN design is a universal garage door bottom weatherproof seal and retainer kit, suitable for wood garage doors and any type of door with a flat bottom. The retainer can be used in various other applications, such as the edge of gates, sliding doors, entry doors, and other uneven floor types.

The seal insert is held in place with a sturdy aluminum extrusion fastened to the bottom of the door with screws, ensuring long-lasting durability. This high-performance, durable, black EPDM synthetic rubber seal is excellent for extreme temperature conditions, passing low-temperature flexibility, aging resistance, and bottom anti-seepage tests.

The 16-foot kit includes the aluminum retainer and the weather seal, along with two rubber end plugs and screws, making it suitable for use on steel or wood roll-up doors. This heavy-duty solution effectively prevents drafts, dirt, and rain from entering under the garage door, even in cold temperatures.
