Installing a door seal
I had nasty draft blowing into the garage from the door behind. Not only did it bring in cold wind in winter, it also brought in the dust in the summer. Since I’m housing some heavy machineries in the garage now I needed something to stop the draft.
And it was a simple door seal that will do the trick for me. All I needed was to seal the opening underneath and something that will cover the gap will suffice. A door seal will do just that.
I used to think all door seals are the same until I went to check them out at the hardware store..there were so many to choose from! I decided on this one which I thought would be sufficient for what I need.
I must say the instruction took me a few minutes to fully understand what I needed to do and it wasn’t a simple task like what I initially thought it’ll be. Well I’m glad I studied the instruction well before I went ahead to install it.
And the end result was quite satisfactory I might add. Now I don’t feel the draft blowing in through the gap anymore and hopefully less dust as well in summer.

Yes! And also to prevent the mouse from coming in thru the gap.
