Weather sealing your garage is crucial for keeping your home warm and reducing energy bills in winter. To prevent cold air from entering, install a door sweep to seal the space between the garage floor and the door. Insulate your garage windows and add a weatherstrip around the door to further prevent drafts and leaks. Adjust the door alignment and roller position to address gaps that allow cold air, water, or pests to enter.
Identify potential leaks around garage doors by checking them at night and turning off lights inside the garage. Garage seals keep out cold air and rain, maintaining a comfortable climate. Advanced garage door weather sealing techniques include using a garage door bottom seal, improving insulation and air sealing, and installing insulation in the walls, attic, and garage doors.
Insulation can be installed into cavities in the door itself, such as fiberglass batts and foam boards. In the garage, drilled holes, air sealed, and blew cellulose into all joists. One of the best ways to significantly improve the garage’s climate is to add insulation to the door, as it is a major source of heat loss in the winter. Double cardboard is a better option than no insulation, as it is free, paintable, and allows some heat to radiate in.

Mate I got an issue hopefully you can tell me what to do. I lifted the roller door and when it was at the top I give it a bit extra to make sure my Ute didn’t hit it. After I pushed on it, it come out of the side guide brackets and went all the way up then over itself. It’s completely slipped from those side grooves and isn’t usable. What do I do? lol 😂
Mrs Richards: “I paid for a room with a view !” Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) “That is Torquay, Madam .” Mrs Richards: “It’s not good enough!” Basil: “May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?…” Mrs Richards: “Don’t be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!” Basil: “You can see the sea, it’s over there between the land and the sky.” Mrs Richards: “I’m not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction.” Basil: “Why?! Because Krakatoa’s not erupting at the moment ?”:face-orange-raised-eyebrow:
Hi Mate. Love your vids. I’ve installed a 3100 wide. And 3000 high roller door. And fitted a new B&d opener. Everything is level etc. only issue is. The door keeps sliding along the shaft/axle toward the opener. Which we have on the left. As there is power there. How can I stop it sliding on the axle. So I can install the door tracks. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Many Thanks.
👍👍👍👍👍 Short article, to the point love it. I was thinking about taping insulation to my roll up door but wasn’t sure how well it would work. Decided to check out some YouTube articles. There are people on here that have 25 to 30 minute articles on insulating a garage door… uhh no thanks . Again, thanks for getting to the point.
