How To Replace Garage Door Weather Strips. Home Energy Hacks.

What happens here

Align the new weatherstrip against the door jamb. Use a hammer to drive the pre-started nails completely into the jamb, securing the weatherstrip in place. Ensure that the back side of the weatherstrip sits flush and even with the garage door trim when the door is closed, as improper alignment can create a gap or make the door too tight.
