Garage Roller Door Seal
Garage Roller Door Seals: Why You Need One
If you have a garage door, you’re going to need a garage roller door seal. Particularly if you want to ensure everything within your garage remains safe, secure, and undamaged. Busy Bee Brushware has been designing, manufacturing, and selling industrial brushes for over 35 years. We’ve seen so many of our customers come to us for garage door seals after believing the door itself would be enough to protect their garage. Here are a few reasons you might want to look into a garage roller door seal.
Common Misconceptions About Garage Doors
Garage doors are such a general feature of our everyday lives that we don’t often think about our thoughts and preconceived beliefs about them. These are a couple of garage door myths and misconceptions Busy Bee Brushware have come across over the years.
- “My garage door will protect my possessions,” While it may help protect them from theft, a simple roller door won’t protect your things from pests, dust, or water damage. Where there is a gap, there is an opportunity for unwanted pests or mess to enter your garage.
- “Garage doors require no maintenance,” It’s simply not true. Like any other appliance or electronic device, roller doors require regular maintenance. Depending on the brand, you should have your door checked over every 1-2 years. Additionally, you’ll need to have your garage door seals replaced now and then. While Busy Bee Brushware’s garage roller door seal is durable, it won’t last forever. When the bristles start to give way, it’s time to replace it.
- “My garage door provides insulation,” This is only partly correct. Your garage door will provide some insulation; it won’t keep heat or cold in your garage. If you need your garage to be at a specific temperature, you’ll want to invest in a good-quality garage roller door seal.
Reasons to Invest In a Garage Roller Door Seal
There are several benefits to installing a high-quality garage roller door seal. Busy Bee Brushware’s garage door seals can:
- Provide weather protection. We all know how incredibly unpredictable Australian weather can be, and our summer storms can often result in flash flooding and water damage. A high-quality garage roller door seal will keep the water out of your garage, thereby protecting your valuable possessions.
- Keep your garage clean. With windy days comes dust and debris. No matter how small the gap in your garage door, the wind will bring in dust and dirt to settle on your car, your tools, and all your possessions. Invest in garage door seals to keep your garage cleaner for longer.
- Stop pests from entering. If it’s raining outside, the cockroaches, spiders, rodents, and other creepy crawlies will be looking for a lovely dry retreat. If you leave your garage unsealed, they’ll see it as a great place to call home, meaning you’ll have to pay for pest control to sort out the issue. A garage roller door seal is ideal for keeping the bugs at bay.
How to Install Your Garage Roller Door Seal
Busy Bee Brushware’s garage door seals are pretty easy to install if you follow our installation guide! If you’re unsure or hesitant about fitting the product yourself, we recommend you contact a local Garage Door Service Company who could fit for you.
- Step 1: Measure your door.
- Step 2: Use a saw to cut the aluminium holder.
- Step 3: Use small bolt cutters to cut the brush. Crimp the ends of the brush to secure the bristles.
- Step 4: Pre-drill holes in the aluminium holder. Do not drill into the brush backing.
- Step 5: Insert the strip brush into a holder before fitting it. Crimp the ends to hold them together.
- Step 6: Ensure the ends of the bristles touch the floor/door but don’t bend. Bent bristles or gaps won’t create a seal.
- Step 7: Clamp the bristles into place while screwing it into place.

This product was used by Aqua Arc pool covers to seal the gap below the end panels. After a few years, the brushes started to lose bristles. The strips continue to drop bristles and I will now have to replace about 8m of seal strip. I have looked at your 9mm strip brush as an alternative. This brush uses polypropylene instead of nylon, so maybe more durable. Alternatively, I may consider a neoprene strip. The bristle length is 100mm. Perhaps this product should not have been used in a pool enclosure application? The galvanised backing strips are showing signs of corrosion. The pool is a fresh water pool with minimal use of chemicals.
Andrea Frier –
Hi Chris
Thanks for your feedback.
We had a look back through our records and we cannot find any record of when your Strip was purchased or whether it was through us. However any Brush will break down over time, particularly when it is exposed to the elements. In the situation where it is located near pool salt or chemicals, this exposure would speed up the process.
The backing of the Strip is made from Galvanised (ZincSeal) Steel, so it will show signs of superficial corrosion. It is also possible that the outer layer of the Nylon bristle has suffered from sun exposure and dried out over time. This can cause the fibre to become brittle and break off. The 9mm Polypropylene Strip Brush will also break down over time for the same reason. You mentioned Neoprene and, again, that would also show wear over time when exposed to the same conditions. Whichever way you go, you will need to consider this a “consumable” product application.
Feel free to call us directly to discuss this further.
Thanks and regards

Purchased 50mm wide brushes for roller door side seals and small brushes for bottom of our double security door. In both cases the brush seals and aluminium frames are of high quality. The product arrived quickly by delivery and I am very pleased with your customer service and follow up. I have recommended your company to a few people.
Cliff (verified owner) –
We bought the garage seals which were damaged in transit but Busy Bee immediately sent replacements. You could not ask for any better service especially when they ran to make sure the replacement shipment arrived safely and undamaged. I would recommend them on both the product and the service.
Daniel (verified owner) –
The helpful instructions combined with high quality brush & aluminium mounting plate made installing this an absolute breeze.
Very quick & affordable postage on 3m length sections to Western Australia, plus package in robust tubing to avoid transit damage.
Paul Scherek (verified owner) –
Excellent product, firm but pliable fibres, good aluminium holder. But mostly, it was brilliant quick and friendly service, for a great price.

Hi guys, I installed these fantastic brushes above our six roller blinds on our veranda to keep the nasty flying insects out during summer and retain the heat in winter. Installation was about 8 months ago and they have been brilliant they still look like new. The product is very well made and durable, they work just as expected. I’m very happy and would be very happy to recomend them to anyone.
Andrea Frier –
Hi Keith
Thanks for your review, it is great to hear how well the Strip Brush worked for you.

Barry Stiles (verified owner) –
We used the brush seal for our rural property which is subject to dust and spiders, the roller door opens to a kitchen so a solution to keep it cleaner and less buggy was searched, and I came across Busy Bee seals, delivery was excellent, follow up advice to assist with an awkward seal proved rewarding, all up a genuine product with excellent customer care.

Very happy with my order, quick delivery and packaged great. Install was easy and the result in conjunction with insulating my garage door and ceiling have made the space quiet, draft free, cleaner and kept it nice and warm through the cooler months. Looking forward to a cooler garage in the summer too. Great to know I can just buy the bristles separately whenever the time arises they may need replacing.

The service was 5 star, I wanted to seal a 2400 mm wide roller door and the sides on a large panel door, recommendation was to get the sample kit and then decide on what would best suit the tasks. After choosing the brushes and holders it was first class packaging and delivery. The product was excellent, prices great and the end result of no more dust issues into the garage. Highly recommend.

Hi David,

The sample kit is a great idea as it allowed me to order the perfect size brushes and holders to seal the garage doors. The brushes are great quality with plenty of bristles to stop any gaps. Installation instructions made it so easy for a DIYer like me.
Delivery was quick with no damage, and customer service/contact/follow-up was excellent.
If I need to seal another garage I would use BusyBee again, and definitely recommend to others.
