P-BULB WEATHERSEAL, BOTTOM - 280/288/180/381/390 SERIES

I purchased two 10 ft. sections of P-Bulb weather seal from the Overhead Door Company as it wasn’t available locally. Shipping was expensive, but both seals were exact replacements although somewhat thinner. Replacing was easy. Stopped the door approximately eye level, uncrimped both ends and pulled the old seal out. Cleaned track with a brush, applied a small amount of dish washing soap to P part of seal and with the help of my wife, slid the new seal through track and crimped track ends. Very easy and quick. Did two 8ft. doors and next will be the 16ft. door. Haven’t done it yet, but I don’t see a problem with the additional length. Be careful who you buy from on line. Some of the P-Bulb weather seals are not P but D and the D-Bulb is inferior and drops out of the track. I found out the hard way. Overhead Door Company sells exactly what they advertise. Thank you Overhead Door Company. Getting ready to place another order.
P.S. Mine came out of the box flat too, but after installation, opening and closing my garage doors, they maintain a bulb shape and flatten out when door seal seats to floor.

I decided to go with the original replacement seal from Overhead believing it would be of better quality or equal to what I already had. The seal I removed was thicker material and held it's shape for 18 years. This new one is thinner and came out of the box flat. It does not compare to the original seal. Wish I had gone with less expensive alternatives.

After being told in town that this part is no longer available and that I needed to buy an entire new channel I decided to look online. Thank gooddness I found OHD parts online. They shipped exactly what I needed very quickly. Parts fit perfectly and I'm back in service. Thank you so much.

Online description and fitment was perfect

Very easy to install and seals good.

Very easy to install
Slide the old out and new one in
Took 10 min max
Works great

Paid a lot for shipping and came rolled up in small box. It did NOT return to correct shape when unrolled. Installed and still not in correct shape. Not even close to original. Not worth the higher price to try to get original from Overhead Doors.

Works well. Almost as good as the original from 40 years ago. Looks real good when closed. A nice rounded shape, that goes end to end, no flopping.
And we used the OHD coupon.

Product worked well and installed easily. Only issue was I ordered 20 feet, was charged for 20 feet, but only received 16 feet.

Replacing original gasket on our 390 Series door. New gasket style works but not as well as original, occasionally when door is closed the gasket flops to the side and leaves a gap at end.

material not very thick compared with what was on the door

My old P bulb seal was about 1 1/4" and D shaped. This P bulb was about 2 1/2" and circular. Didn't even take it out of the box. Read more net reviews and is it a bad design like I thought.
