Garage Door Garage Door Weatherstripping Mars Hill, NC
Mars Hill garage door weatherstripping runs through our shop constantly. Set in North Carolina's humid subtropical region, these doors meet summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, morning condensation that collects on cold metal hardware, and corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air, and we choose parts that outlast it.
Because Mars Hill has hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year, the doors here age differently than inland or coastal homes elsewhere. The usual culprits are summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, morning condensation that collects on cold metal hardware, and corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air — exactly what our techs come prepared for.
We've fixed thousands of doors around Madison County, and the pattern holds in Mars Hill: pitted galvanized hardware on older doors, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, and moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms. None of it should leave you without a working garage for more than a day.
Weatherstripping is the often-overlooked component that determines whether your garage is sealed against drafts, dust, pests, and water. There are four distinct seal locations on a typical door: the bottom astragal seal between door and floor, the side jamb seals between door edges and door frame, the top header seal between door top and frame, and (optionally) a threshold kit on the floor itself. Each wears or fails on its own schedule and contributes to a tight seal.
We replace all four where needed in a single visit. Bottom astragals come in T-style, P-style, and bulb profiles to fit any retainer; we carry all three. Jamb seals are vinyl flap or brush, with the flap style being more common locally. Threshold kits sit on the concrete floor and create a positive seal even when the floor has settled or sloped slightly. Most homes can benefit from at least one of these upgrades.
Typical visit: 45–60 minutes per door. Installation is straightforward — measure, cut to length, fit and secure. The biggest impact is usually the bottom seal, especially on older doors where the original seal has cracked, hardened, or worn through from floor contact.

A pencil-width gap or larger means the bottom seal is worn, cracked, or compressed. Replacement restores the seal.
Drafts in the garage
Air movement around the door edges with the door closed indicates failed jamb or header seals. Side gaps let cold air, dust, and pests in.
Water intrusion during rain
Water under the door during heavy rain points to either bottom-seal failure or a low spot in the floor that a threshold kit can fix.
Pests entering the garage
Rodents, lizards, and insects find any gap. Effective weatherstripping seals them out.
Old or cracked existing seals
Bottom seals harden and crack at 5–8 years. Side and top seals last longer but eventually fail. Visible cracking means replace.
Common causes & what we fix
UV degradation
Vinyl and rubber seals harden and crack under intense sun exposure over years. Replacement with UV-resistant compounds extends life.
Floor wear
Bottom seals contact the floor every close cycle. The seal compresses, deforms, and eventually tears.
Concrete heave or settlement
Floors that have settled or heaved create gaps under the closed door. Threshold kits compensate.
Pest damage
Rodents chew through bottom seals to enter. Once chewed, the seal must be replaced.
Improper original install
Builder-grade installs sometimes skip jamb seals entirely. Adding them is a quick upgrade.

Frequently asked about garage door weatherstripping
Top questions homeowners searching for Garage Door Weatherstripping near me ask us:
Mars Hill sits in hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. That is hard on a door — summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, morning condensation that collects on cold metal hardware, and corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are pitted galvanized hardware on older doors, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, and moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms. We size springs and seals for North Carolina's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
The call we get most in Mars Hill is pitted galvanized hardware on older doors. Mars Hill has mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes, so sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity turns up often too. We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.
2 years on weatherstripping materials, 5 years on threshold kits, 10-year workmanship on the install.
Bottom seals are DIY-friendly if you can match the retainer profile and trim accurately. Jamb and header seals are more fiddly but doable. Threshold kits require precise alignment and good adhesive technique.
Weatherstripping is quoted flat-rate by scope — bottom seal only, bottom plus jamb seals, or the full package, with an optional threshold kit. We confirm the price in writing before installing.
If your floor has settled, sloped, or shows water intrusion during rain — yes. If the bottom seal alone gives you a tight close — no, the threshold is optional.
