Mother nature plays a large role in helping your garage floor get out of whack. Now some years have passed and your garage floor is less than perfect. So i guess you are going to have to look into a floor leveling compound for this uneven garage floor. Measure the width of the door.

When your house was built and the garage floor was poured assuming it s concrete of course it was level new and gorgeous. Open the garage door. Clean the area where the garage door meets the floor to encourage good adhesion. Manually close the garage door onto the seal so you can adjust it to a precise location.

Here the gap is the distance between the floor and the bottom of the door. Complete this step with a partner s help. If that point is more than four feet or less than three feet above the ground you will need to balance the door. Then you have to consider the most significant gap and choose the seal size accordingly.

Lay out the seal from one edge of the garage door opening to the other and cut it to the proper length. This is a common issue we run into especially with older garages. My garage has an uneven floor. Mark out the location of the seal on both sides along the garage floor with a pencil.

Move the garage door up and down until you find a place where the door stays suspended when you let go.
