Measure Direct-Fastened Garage Bottom Seals
Source-backedMeasurement guideSource-backed identification reference
Evidence boundary: This guide uses source-backed evidence. It does not establish an OEM part number, exact product identity, universal dimensions, compatibility, supersession, or replacement fit.
This active measurement guide supports observation of a direct-fastened garage-bottom strip without promoting the related partial profile family page out of HOLD.
Accepted family observation
Flexible strip is directly fastened to the door bottom rather than slid into a retainer channel.
- Interface
- nail/screw/direct fastening; no retainer
- Measure
- strip width · projection · fastener line · door-bottom geometry
- Evidence
- partial
- Do not infer
- Do not assume this family when a concealed retainer exists; inspect end view and mounting hardware.
Measurement sequence
- Stabilize sample — Remove only if safe; let flexible profile relax without stretching or intentional compression. If installed-only, document that limitation.
- Choose datum — Orient cross-section with mounting/base datum at bottom and active sealing element toward top/contact surface. Record orientation.
- Record tool/resolution — Log instrument and actual resolution before dimensions. Canonical numeric storage is mm; retain original unit text.
- Measure base/interface first — Measure backing/base width/thickness or kerf stem before soft sealing element so retention geometry is not conflated with seal projection.
- Measure receiving channel separately — If accessible without damage, measure throat width, cavity width and depth. Never substitute backing width for channel throat width.
- Capture contact mechanics — Record closure/contact motion: normal compression, lateral wipe, sliding brush contact, hybrid or unknown. Add plain-language direction.
- Photograph evidence — Complete V01-V04 and V08; add V05-V07/V09 when applicable. Scale must be in same plane for dimensional reference.
- Apply uncertainty state — Source-backed only for directly measured/authoritatively sourced fields; partial when core evidence is incomplete; unverified when identity/geometry depends on guesswork.
- No fit decision — This standard may narrow site geometry but must not assert replacement compatibility, generation equivalence or acceptable compression without separate source-backed fit evidence.
Boundary: no numeric compatibility range is supplied. The related direct-fastened profile family remains HOLD and is not instantiated as a standalone profile route.
