For sealing the space between your garage door bottom and concrete garage floor, we offer the Storm Shield Garage Door Threshold Weather Seal or floor weather stripping kits that are supplied with adhesive. It is recommended to only install the weather floor seals if the temperature is over 55 degrees for at least twenty four hours for the adhesive to cure. This does not waterproof your garage but actually acts as a seal to help contain moisture and yard materials such as leaves.
