Shield Protects Garage Entry Points
A garage is the largest opening in a home, yet one of its smallest vulnerabilities can create its biggest problems. The lower corners of a garage door are common targets for rodents, insects and other pests that exploit damaged weather seals and deteriorating wood framing to gain entry.
Hern’s Pro Pest Shield Protection Armor Kit was developed to address this weak spot with a durable, patented solution. Designed for universal fit, the kit consists of a manufactured seal and an aluminum auxiliary component that together form a complete protective barrier around the garage door corner.
“Often, new houses are built in what used to be fields, and the mice and rats that lived there will chew at the vinyl-rubber weather seal or the wood frame,” says company owner Roberto Hern. “Our product removes the bite opportunity, so they can’t grab onto anything. It’s a small package that solves big problems.”
Since most modern garage doors are already made of aluminum, the product creates a durable, damage-resistant aluminum-to-aluminum connection. The material is also flexible enough to conform to existing weather seals and accommodate the normal movement of a garage door without compromising the seal. Installation can be completed in less than 15 min.
The product is designed to fit a variety of framing configurations, including 2 by 4-in., 2 by 6-in. and 2 by 8-in.
“Garage construction varies, but security shouldn’t. Our pest shield is engineered with the versatility to adapt to any architecture. This universal fit eliminates the guesswork and the ‘hardware store run’ cycle, providing a snug, professional-grade retrofit that looks like it was built into your garage from day one,” Hern says.
Manufactured in Texas, the all-in-one kit includes matching screws and the required drill bit for installation. Available in matte black or matte white, the Pro Pest Shield Protection Armor Kit is sold throughout North America for $44.99 plus S&H.
