FAQs
Does this seal work on sloped driveways?
Yes, but ensure the floor is level where the door makes contact to maintain a consistent seal.
Can I drive over the seal immediately?
It is recommended to wait at least 24 hours after installation to allow the adhesive to reach full strength before driving over it.
What is the maximum gap this seal can cover?
This seal is designed to effectively close gaps up to 18mm high.
Is the material weather resistant?
Yes, it is designed for outdoor use and is resistant to rot, UV degradation, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
Can I use this on a wooden garage floor?
While intended for concrete, it may adhere to sealed wood if the surface is cleaned and primed properly.
How do I cut the strip to size?
A standard, sharp utility knife or heavy-duty shears will work effectively to trim the material to your required length.
Troubleshooting
Seal is not sticking to the concrete floor
Ensure the floor was cleaned of all dust, oil, and moisture prior to installation. Re-apply using a high-quality outdoor-rated adhesive if necessary.
Door is difficult to close after installation
The seal may be too thick for your specific door gap; ensure it is properly aligned or trimmed if it is causing excessive friction.
Seal is curling at the edges
Use a heavy weight to press the edges down for 24 hours while the adhesive cures completely.
