I would recommend a threshold seal as well. I bought the one in the link below as I always had water coming in my garage. Both this door seal and the threshold did the trick for me.Sensible Solutions 3016 Storm Shield 16-Foot Garage Door Threshold

If the area where the door comes down is sloped away from the garage you should be OK without the threshold seal. Most are built this way but sometimes the house settles more than the driveway. A threshold seal also helps if the door and the driveway are significantly out of level (i.e. there is a gap on one side). Finally threshold seals help if you live in the north were you get significant snow and ice which can form a dam and make water flow toward your garage.

Will likely need a threshold seal as well to be completely waterproof. This will be 95% effective on its own.

We haven't had any rain to speak of here in California since I put the seal in, but I am sure it will keep out water from rain splashing or hosing off the driveway. I'm not sure if the seal is enough to stop a flood, however. What I do know, is that our "mow/blow" guy used to blow dust and leaves into our garage and this seal stops all of that.

It will prevent water from entering provided you have the rubber on garage door against your floor/slab even with no gaps or openings. If its pretty level you will be fine.

Not sure without seam sealing. I waterproofed it too. It stood up through rain storm and then through snow the other week in Portland, OR without getting wet inside. I.didn't use it before seam sealing and waterproofing though. Sorry i cant be more help!

Kren, you will need a caulk gun (the standard size). It is either liquid nail adhesive or a knock off brand. The one tube supplied does a single garage door. I put mine in a while back and I haven't had any problems. Good luck.

You wanna use this outside to prevent water from coming inside your house,basement or garage. It becomes like a barrier

The interior is lined to prevent water getting in. When I first made my purchase I was worried about the opening being to free but since I've had it I've had no problems with water getting in.

I would seal in zip locks, just to be safe, because mine did allow a little moisture in. I followed the instructions explicitly, but the fabric itself allowed some water to weep through.

Not necessarily. Although I had the same situation, it greatly reduced the water flowing into that corner. I think if I had used more Liquid Nails and sealed the outside edges better it might have stopped that. Your rubber on the bottom of your garage door probably needs to be replaced. If you have a lot of rain and hot summer days you may find that you need to replace the rubber on the bottom of your garage door more frequently. Now that they have the new products such as Flex Shot (at FlexShot.com or perhaps on Amazon) there should be a way for you to combine these products and get a great seal. Good Luck Not necessarily.

It's waterproof, so putting this under the overhang of your garage will work when it rains

Hi,No, this goes on the floor and the rubber piece from the garage door sits on top of it. When you close the garage door it creats a seal between the garage door and floor. I hope this helps.

To be safe this item is not listed anywhere in the instructions for wet locations. To answer your question, on the site where the cable enters there is a piece of rubber that has a small round hole in the middle to attempt to seal around the cable. This is similar to one you would buy at the depot. It is designed for outdoor use and I use mine to connect to a generator plug on the side of my house that goes to a transfer switch. I built a small housing around it to protect it from rain.

Anytime! Hope that was helpful. Also, I used thompsons water sealer on it to help protect it more from the elements. Contacted manufacturer n they said that was fine.

As long as the cover is in place it is water resistant, but not water proof, the cover is not water tight when installed.

I would say No. I know my garage doors use a prefabbed wood with a rubber flap seal, not sure of your configuration.

There are clear plastic pieces that you cut to fit around the hinges and they close up to the wall and act like a squeegee sealing up the side and across the bottom. The door closes on an L shape clear plastic. It works well and looks nice. No water leakage so far...it's been in since July this year.

It is used on the floor in addition to the seal on your door. The rubber-on-rubber makes a good seal to keep out water and multi-segmented critters. Our driveway slopes very very slightly toward the garage door and I had a problem with water seeping under the door when it rained heavily. This stripping solved the problem nicely.

It has a full gasket seal on the door. I installed this unit outside last August and I highly recommend it. Absolutely tight and no leaks.

The mat does a great job at containing the water/sand/salt used in my area. Because my garage floor slightly slopes towards the door, I have a rolled up towel under the low end to ensure the water stays in. Rather than dragging it out, I use a shop vac to clean up as needed.
