ABSTRACT:
The present invention sets forth a garage door sealing apparatus wherein a plurality of electric motors are integrally secured to each door track of a typical garage reciprocating door. Upon closing of the door, the plurality of electric motors each pull the associated track into engagement with the framework of the garage and wherein movement is halted upon the associated door contacting at least one limit switch. This arrangement pulls the garage door into sealing engagement with the associated framework to minimize heat loss through a garage.
