Bought one on Amazon with that and the piece that goes into the rails is way to soft of rubber to get into the tracks

Not sure they have a larger size. I’ll check for the next one. Thanks LG👍🏻

They are all pretty much if not the same👍🏻

@@HighRidgeHandyman Thank you for the quick reply. However I bumped into some articles saying that Wayne Dalton garage doors require their exclusive rubber seals, which is a pain to get.

I’m glad it helped out!!!! Subscribe for the next one👍🏻👍🏻

They recently moved in. The inside of that place could definitely be in magazines. Top notch👍🏻

Never had an issue installing them. Try to feed it slow. Always easier to have someone feeding it while you pull it across. Make sure it’s chest level when Installing. Good luck

Check the channel width. I bought a replacement from Home Depot and it wouldn’t fit. Found out the t was 5/16” but my channel was 1/4”. Had to order some online.

Not sure why. I just stop it halfway so I can work on it. Makes it easier for me to reach. Just make sure nobody hits the button when your replacing it. As for disengaging it you would then need to rest it on something in order to pull the new one thru. Seems harder that way. Good luck👍🏻

Thanks Sig👍🏻 Sonny’s a good boy. Hey it’s never yo late to get another. Life is to short so live it to the fullest💪🏻 Have a good holiday bro

This particular job had an uneven ground so it had to go a little bit lower on one side than the other. If you have a level base it’s still OK to let it sit snug to keep air and any kind of critters out. They’re so inexpensive you can replace them every so many years. Good luck

@@HighRidgeHandyman thanks

Anytime Johnny👍🏻

Bead comes from the factory. Just razor it out. The new one slides right into place. That’s if the bottom track isn’t beat to hell😩 👍🏻

@@HighRidgeHandyman I understand what you're saying but yes my problem is that the previous homeowner took what appears to be a flat head screw driver to the edges and hammered the last 1/2" shut on either side. I was able to open it, and roughly reshape with a metal pin but the seal will not slide into the track. It catches and starts to shred, took an hour to get 1' with minimal damage. Ordering a replacement track. No worries and thanks for the reply.

I'm trying to replace the seal on my garage doors and they haven't been replaced in over 30 years. Dried, crusted ,and cracking into pieces while I'm pulling it out and the ends appear crimped or tighter than the rest of the track. Do people crimp the ends to keep the seal in?

@@ketoabigail3306 Save yourself the trouble, I had the same issue recently. Replace the track and seal at the same time. My track had a bead instead of the T shape, ordered that to then realize the crimped edges. I uncrimped the edges and reshaped around a metal rod the best I could, the seal wouldn't slide on the track without tearing. Wasted $30 bucks. Ordered a replacement track that came with a seal for $35, self tapping screws, easy job, done in 30 mins. no headaches.

Good luck Grace👍🏻
