Garage Door Plastic Window Inserts

Garage door windows are an excellent addition to your garage. They allow natural light to filter into your garage, providing a more comfortable and inviting space. They can also help to reduce the risk of condensation and mildew, which can damage your garage door and the items stored inside. Finally, garage door windows can add a touch of style to your garage, making it a more attractive part of your home.

If you are considering adding windows to your garage door, you have a few different options to choose from. One option is to purchase a new garage door with windows already installed. However, this can be a costly option. A more affordable option is to install plastic window inserts into your existing garage door.

Plastic window inserts are a great way to add windows to your garage door without having to replace the entire door. They are easy to install and can be done in just a few hours. Plastic window inserts are also available in a variety of sizes and styles, so you can find the perfect ones to match your garage door.

Here are step by step to install your plastic window inserts:

Measure and mark the location of the windows. You will need to decide how many windows you want to install and where you want them to be placed. Once you have decided, use a pencil to mark the location of each window on the garage door.
Cut out the holes for the windows. Use a jigsaw or a hole saw to cut out the holes for the windows. Make sure to cut the holes slightly smaller than the windows so that they will fit snugly.
Clean the holes and the windows. Use a damp cloth to clean the holes and the windows. This will help to ensure a good seal between the windows and the garage door.
Install the windows. Apply a bead of silicone caulk around the perimeter of each window. Then, insert the windows into the holes and press them firmly into place. Use a putty knife to smooth out the caulk and remove any excess.
Allow the caulk to dry. Allow the caulk to dry completely before using the garage door. This will help to ensure a secure seal and prevent leaks.

Once you have installed the plastic window inserts, you can enjoy the benefits of having windows in your garage. You can easily see who is outside, let natural light in, and reduce the risk of condensation and mildew.
