I'm would like to run a strip of whether-strip threshold

along the floor under my garage door seal to compensate

for a slightly out of square garage door/ slab junction.

Is there a commercially available inexpensive material readily available

for this use?

I see the actual garage door threshold material sold for $50- $100.

I'm a cheap do-it myself type of guy. Thanks.

HD carries a rubber door bottom that should be flexible enough to fill the gap. They have several styles, but this is thick enough to fill the gap.

If the door door has a big gap, this should be able to be doubled up in the area of the worst offense.

Or you could do what my buddy did. Took an old garden hose and fed it into the hole on the side of the existing garage door seal since it's hollow. Shoved that in there and it created a good 1" squishable seal. Says he never has any air or water problems anymore.
