I am installing a new entry door for my shop and the floor is a concrete
slab. What sort of caulk or sealing method would be best to seal between the
door sill and the concrete floor?
One fellow I met mentioned some sort of asphalt based sealant. Another
person mentioned putting a 1/2 inch of pressure treated lumber between the
door sill and the concrete floor.
I am not concerned about clearances for carpeting as this is for a workshop.
I just don't want air or water seeping in under the sill.
What is the best way to deal with something like this?
Thanks

there is a pan specifically designed for this.looks like a { Z }.
silicone under the pan for keeping the critters out. any blowing rain
that gets under the door has no place to go but back out.
