Default Strip for bottom of garage door?

My up-and-over garage door has over an inch gap at the bottom. So I'm
constantly sweeping out dead leaves. Can anyone recommend an easily
applied (and easily obtained) strip of material I can secure to it
please?

I used Damp proof course membrane. fold in half an dthen pop rivet the
open end to the door in with a backing strip. sort of like:

assuming your door has a sort of gutter inside at the bottom. I did
this 6 years ago to my door, and it does not yet need replacing. DPC is
cheap an dyou get a lot of it
