Garage Door Weatherstripping
Did you know that even the best-fitting garage doors still have natural gaps that can let dust, debris, water, or pests into your garage? Professionally installed weather stripping helps to seal gaps between exposed areas around the entrances of garage doors.

Benefits of Garage Door Seals for Your Home
Weatherstripping offers several benefits for your home, making it an essential part of your garage door. See below for a full breakdown.
- Reduce Energy Costs: Weatherstripping isn’t just about keeping your garage more cozy; it is better for your wallet, as garage door weather seals can save you money on your energy bills. Weather seals close the gaps on your garage, to ensure that no unwanted drafts are entering your garage door or home. Sealing your garage door will keep the heat in and cold out, so the heat from your home can not escape. Likewise, the air conditioning will remain inside your home and keep energy bills down. Investing in quality weatherstripping is an easy long term investment that will save you money in the years to come.
- Keep Debris and Pests Out: No one wants unwanted pests or critters in their garage. Ensure that your garage door is properly sealed to keep these animals out, along with miscellaneous debris from weather conditions you may face in your area. Proper fitting weather seals can keep almost everything out, making your garage a cleaner environment.
- Temperature Regulation: Weatherstripping plays an important role in having proper temperature regulation. When you weatherstrip, it will help seal up gaps in the edges of the garage door. This helps prevent holes and air leakage that can lead to heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. Overall, this will allow more energy efficiency and increase comfort year-round in your house.
How Often Does Weatherstripping Need to be Replaced?
It is recommended that weatherstripping is replaced every 5-10 years, depending on the type of seal, the climate you live in, and the amount the garage door is used. To ensure that weatherstripping is working properly, assess the weatherstripping annually to see if it is fitted properly, make sure there is no flaking or cracking. All of these damages are possible due to weather and outdoor conditions.
If you notice that the weatherstripping is not in the expected condition, call Modern Day Garage to replace or maintain your current weatherstripping.
