Established in 1923 in Detroit, MI as the UNIVERSAL WEATHERSTRIP AND SCREEN COMPANY manufacturing wood storms, screens and porch enclosures, this firm grew steadily through World War II.

With the advent of aluminum and the increasing consumer demand for aluminum doors, windows and similar products, the company changed to specialize in weatherstrip products for residential, commercial and industrial structures and, at that time, tailored its name to UNIVERSAL WEATHERSTRIP COMPANY, INC.
One of the best is our brush seal for the jambs and header, which is very easily installed, either with double face tape or screwed on. The brush material withstands over 1 million openings and closings. The door bottom can also be weatherstripped with a brush seal, or various other types of door bottoms available to you in our store.

Update 11/9 came in for some caulking.was in and out. Great quick service. One big difference though. The old man wasn't there. Hopefully he retired and passed it on as I'm sure that would create a lot more business for them
literally waited 30 minutes for two pails of caulking..... I think it's time for the old man to retire....smh
Update 4/15. Picked up caulk on Thursday. Waited again but also witnessed the old man yelling at his office girl. Highly unprofessional. The other customer looked at me and said he's senile and shouldn't be there anymore.
Update 8/19. Was here today picking up material

They have all the products I need for weather sealing my historic window restoration projects. Great service, quality products. The only place in the area to get a lot of what I need.

This place is a hidden gem for contractors. I was told to check them out from a sealant rep a few years ago. I always refer them out to other guys. They have hard to find items that make my jobs easy.

I went in today looking for a special gasket and although they did not have the gasket they referred me to a place that did. I would have never found it without them. Thanks

I own and operate CRR, primarily Caulking and stonework and Universal weather stripping is beyond reproach. Very deepky knowledgeable on all products. I will not go any place else.

Does not stand behind the products they sell. Customer service has always been great except for the owner, he is happy as a jaybird when taking your money but not so happy when confronted with an issue on something purchased. He has been there way too long and needs to retire already. I purchased Vulkem caulk in white from him on 1-14-21 which if your in the business you know has a shelf life. Everything that was caulked with that case turned yellow after 24 hours. He acted like I was doing something wrong and offered no remedy. I have been in the business I am in, for 25 Years and have applied

Good looking place off the Schoolcraft and I 96 service drive. Brave business to stay in its current location, considering. Will benefit greatly from the forth coming gentrification of that area.
