Depending on where you live in The Villages, the vast majority are these. Clopay garage doors. Replacements are available at Home Depot. They come in 18’ and 9’, and are easy to trim.

Replacement is straightforward. The original installers typically put a couple self tapping sheet metal screws at each end. Be sure to unscrew them before trying to remove the old seal.

When reinstalling, depending on the condition of the metal track, it’s sometimes helpful to apply some liquid soap on the new seal. I’ve replaced many of these, and for the 16’ garage doors it’s helpful to have a second person, but not required.
