How much does this compress? The gap between my door and the door frame is around 1/16" thick. Since this is 3/16 " thick I'm wondering if it'll fit.

I find that it feels like sponge and compresses quite a lot. In fact, after you remove the backing to reveal the sticky side, you can actually it stretch quite a fair bit, not that you would want to. If you are using it along the entire perimeter of the door, the final closing may get a little stiffer but I do prefer a tight seal. That is also assuming your 1/16" gap is uniform across. Definitely not a problem on the hinged side of the door though.

Yes, it is designed to fit standard door preps which is Door thickness range: 1-3/8" to 1-3/4"

Cassey, Your frame would have to be 3/4 inches thick. These are designed for a 1/2 overlay. Which means the door would overlay the frame by 1/2 inch. As far as dimensions, the door could be any size. Hope this helpsDennis

While I agree with Mr. Ilecki as to the seal fitting under the garage door and that it is really a matter of adjusting your door's travel, using a machinist's rule, I found the thickest part of the cross section to be .5 inches. I installed this product last fall and am very pleased with it. It remedied the problem we had with a straight-edged door with a good seal installed, not being able to seal against an uneven garage floor in the area of the doors' sealing area. It has kept the rain and melting snow out and ended the problems with drafts.

No it did not fit. We used some caulking to fill in the gap. Love the door.

Mine is about a half inch thick but it looks like it could be as much as 3 inches thick (thought that would leave you with only a 1/4" clearance). So maybe it's best to say the maximum usable distance is 3 3/4". The minimum thickness would be set by the length of the screws.

Depends on the design of your door. Usually it'll take an extra TUG on the door, to get it to close. In general, it'll be a TIGHT fit.

Our door is 1 7/8" thick. It fits over the top of the door with no wiggle room.

To be honest, I don't know. I installed ours into our metal door and it's about 1 3/4 thick.

My opening is 35" and the gate has two extensions, one on each side, the gate opening is 16 1/2". I don't know if they have them, larger extensions, but this really is a great gate if it fits your door frame opening. It is a tension gate and the more extension you add the weaker it makes the gate. Course, you could add something like 2x4's to decrease the door size opening to accommodate the gate and smaller extensions if needed. Don't know your situation, but hope this all helps.

The hole that gets cut through the door is 6¼" x 6¼" but the covering frame needs 8" x 8". It sounds like you should be fine. We had a similar situation and it worked well and we love the door; sturdy, easy to use and dependable.

The most it will accommodate is about 1 7/16 inch width, my door is 1 5/16, so just a tad loose, but no problem.I don't think it adjusts to fit the width. I hope this helps.

Well, there's a loose metal piece that fits on two grooves that serves the purpose of making a better fit on my door, which is only about an inch thick. I measured the over-the-door portion without the loose metal piece, and it's just over 1 3/4", so I would say yes, if you can finagle that piece off. Seems simple enough to do, IMHO.

This seal is not big enough to bridge a gap that big - it won't handle much more than 1/2". I bought a different seal - Garage Door Parts Clopay T-end Bottom Rubber Seal - 4 1/2"x20' - and used it with the same track in this kit. It can probably handle up to 2". My garage door has a gap of 1 1/4" either end (of a 16ft door) and it seals really nicely.

I installed it with out morticing. The gap between the frame the the door was large enough installation was not an issue. You will need at least 1/8 inch gap between frame and door.

It is 1" although it is soft and your door may just brush over it. The .4 is the compressed dimension.

when the door is closed what is the demention from face of door to the jamb "door frame". Mine is 3/8th when the door is closed ant the weather strip is compressed. Thank you for your help.
