Garage Doors in Oregon

After the historic Labor Day wildfires burned more than 1.2 million acres and destroyed over 3,000 structures across Oregon in 2020, the legislature passed Senate Bill 762 in 2021, directing the state to map wildfire risk statewide and require homes in the highest-risk zones to meet International Wildland-Urban Interface Code construction standards meant to stop wind-blown embers from igniting a structure before a fire front ever arrives. A garage is a well-documented weak point in that defense, since it's typically full of combustible material — stored fuel, paint, cardboard — and a garage door with worn or gapped weatherstripping along the bottom and sides gives embers an easy way in. That's made sealing gaps, and in the highest-risk zones upgrading to an ignition-resistant garage door assembly, a real part of home-hardening work for homeowners in Oregon's wildfire-prone areas, separate from routine repair needs.
