M-D Building Products 03822 30ft. (White) Durable Garage Door Seal & Weather Stripping Insulation Kit - Keeps Dust and Moisture Out, Easy Installation for Top and Sides

I was able to install it myself, but it was really hard to get the highest portions in place - I’m short and have no strength above my head. So i had a 91” piece and was trying to hold it straight on the door frame above me AND hold a nail in place AND hammer it in - not easy. All i needed was one person to hold it for me to get it started, but thats not exactly something i have access to. I needed up getting it placed with the nails 1/2 driven, and then adjusted the placement and nails afterwards. So i have a lot more holes in the door frame than what would be ideal, but hey, the thing is up, and it is keeping the heat in and the cold out pretty darn well. It did have places in the roll that were a little warped... when i measured it the longer flap would be sticking up in waves. This doesn’t seem to affect the functionality once the seal is placed, just kind of annoying. I think this can be attributed to the stretching capability of this seal, which is great in most cases but was definitely a little annoying when i went back to do my readjustment. Because this will stretch, but wont ‘stretch back,’ so to speak, to maintain tension. It stays stretched out once you stretch it.

This garage door seal is great. I have a 16'wide x 7'tall opening with a insulated garage door that still had those pesky cracks between the opening and the door when closed. This has successfully held out the elements(we don't ever get snow here though) But it does great by preventing wind, dust, dirt and rain from entering in. The vinyl material stretches a little but be careful no to, as this creates small openings. I took one star off because of corners, They do not bend around corners therefore, I mitered the corners the best I could... it still had small openings that allows small insects/spiders in. The other reason is because of the galvanized nails, the heads should be painted white(or same color of the vinyl) so your not seeing the nails that are hammered every 4-6 inches. Other than that, this is a great product and has held up for almost 2 years so far. Update: 1/6/13 Still doing its job! Great quality and keeps the insects out and wind blown debris.

Sturdy, flexible, and easy to cut to size. Installed it in minutes and it seals tight. Highly recommend.

Product was a good buy over other sources, however it is evident that some of these were really old as they are not white and have aged, yellowed, labels on them were almost non existent and one piece was short about 2-3 inches in comparison to the rest of them (like someone had cut it off because it broke). We had to make it work because we didn't thoroughly inspect the items side by side when we received them to notice the color being off and the one being short. Taught us a lesson for sure. Product worked well, just does not present the same unified color seal around our doors which is disappointing. A bit difficult to work with, they need a bead of silicone as well unless you plan to put screws every inch or so.

I had this product on the door for over a decade, I only had to replace it because I re-did the trim and the dimensions changed, otherwise the old stuff would have been fine to re-use. It is very durable and long lasting. The old stuff came with nice white painted roofing nails, which I used, but now the nails provided are galvanized and look bad so I did not use them. I used the screws pictured, purchased at Menard's, they work much better. The strip needs no sealant to the door trim, the pressure from the door forces it into the trim and effects a seal that way, the fasteners just hold it in place, so don't get the idea of caulking it to the trim, that is totally unnecessary. You have to set it in place so it puts light pressure on the door to get a seal, but not too much or the door might hang up and not close completely. The door itself also must have its track adjusted so it follows the door opening accurately. A little careful tweaking gets it right. Look at the bottom seal of the door where it sits on the concrete and make sure it sits the same as before the strips were installed, if you see daylight where there wasn't any before, then the strip pressure is hanging up the door. You don't need to miter the corners, just butt the top strip ends to the door trim and butt the side strip ends to the top strip, carve a contour in the ends of the side strips with scissors to match the profile of the top strip.

I bought this to seal the sides and bottom of my garage door to keep leaves and rodents out of the garage. The product says it's only for the top and sides, and I bought a different bottom seal, but after looking at this one (and having plenty of left over to use), I tried it for the bottom of the garage door and it worked great! I used a staple gun instead of nails, a lot easier and just as effective. This is a much cheaper way to keep the draft/leaves/mice/rats out, and only took about 10 minutes to install.

This is a simple strip of flexible material cutcto an appropriate length. Simple to install and efficient . It is substantially thinner than the weatherstrip which is being replaced and.... bummer... and it did not come with nails. Adequate, and decently priced.

love this product. spent $18 for this product, $4 of 3 (1.5 x 0.5 x 96 inch) wood at home depot, with extra hardware laying around in my garage. i spent a total $22 instead of paying $36 for that vinyl at home depot at $9 for 9ft long garage door seal. basically what i did 1st was cut the wood to length, drill holes every 12 inch and countersink them too, and paint them to the color of my house trim. 2nd I use a heat gun to straighten the vinyl since the product comes in rolled up there is a lot of bend and unevenness. 3rd i used my 18 gauge nailer and nail in the vinyl into the wood ( you could use caulking in between the wood and vinyl for a better seal). 4th i predrill some screws into the wood for a easier way to screw the wood onto the side of the garage opening. i did the top seal and then the sides after. had to cut a 45 degree to fit the sides with the top ones. after that you can cover/caulk and paint for a finish look. here are some pics. its best to do it this way than the direction that is provided. this way makes your garage looks cleaner and professionally done.
