'Garadam' Garage Door Flood Barrier Threshold Kit 50mm (High)

The ‘Garadam’ is our largest garage door flood barrier. Standing at 50mm it is easy to see why it’s referred to as a garage dam, due to it’s size it will stop any flooding that may occur in your garage up to 50mm high. It will also rodent proof the garage as they will not be able to make it past the ‘Garadam’. 

The ‘Garadam’ is 50mm high and the width is 220mm. It comes in a number of length from 2.52m all the way up to 4.95m which means you will be able to find the size that will suit your garage door with no problem, and can always cut it down to size.

How does your garage door flood barrier work?

When the threshold seal is placed down and secured with the adhesive it creates a seal between the garage door and floor which is completely water tight up to 50mm high. This then prevents any water from going into the garage, providing you with complete protection. Not only does this act as a seal to stop flooding but it will also stop any windswept leaves, dust and debris and will work exceptionally well in hot and dry areas which also see a lot of torrential rain.

An additional bonus is that it acts as a sort of rodent guard, due to its sheer size and it covering the garage door opening it will ward off any mice, rats and snakes that try to make their way inside. Due to it effectively making your garage sealed it should act as a deterrent to any pests that may try to break into the garage.

What material is this garage dam made out of?

Similarly, to the rest of our garage door threshold seals the ‘Garadam’ is made from highly recyclable PVC material. This material is very durable and will not split or crack unlike rubber garage door threshold seals, excessive rainfall or sun exposure will not dull the quality or colour in any way. It is also completely odourless and UV stable, so you won’t have to worry about it making your garage smell.

What should I be aware of before buying this garage door flood barrier?

Before buying this product, you should be aware of a few things. First of all, it is quite a large size and may require two people to lift so if you buy one of the longer lengths it is best to bring someone with you.

The second is that if you should be installing the garage door flood barrier further back behind the door or tracks it is recommended to buy the side blocks, found here. This will make sure that if the rain gets particularly heavy with over 50mm rainfall that it won’t spill over the sides of the ‘Garadam’.

Finally, the 'Garadam' has a weight limit of 2722 kg and there is suitable for regular cars and small vehicles. Forklift trucks, lorries, vans, tractors etc., are too heavy and should not go over the seal. It is also not appropriate for use in high traffic areas such as parking garages. 

The kit includes:

• ‘Garadam’ garage door flood barrier 50mm
• Adhesive with an amount dependant on the length chosen
• Full colour instruction booklet with a link to this video guide
• 5-year warranty included with the products
