Oh the weather outside is so delightful!

As the weather turns cold and the snow starts to fall, don't forget to winterize your garage door.

The weatherstrip on the outside of the door should be checked and replaced if the weatherstrip is cracked or broken. The outside weatherstrip can let in cold air around the door.

The weatherstrip on the bottom of the door should be replaced. The bottom weatherstrip will also let cold air in around the bottom of the garage door. Also keep ice and snow clear of the bottom of the garage door, this will help the door not to freeze to the ground. The opener pulling the garage door open from being frozen to the ground can cause the garage door springs to break.

Cold temperatures means that the garage door spring may break. Extreme temperature changes can cause damage to garage door springs.

Also you should not see any kind of light from underneath of your closed garage door. If you are seeing light, you could need a new weatherstrip or a garage door adjustment.
