The concrete slab should not be exposed, that way, unless it is
significantly sloped toward its exterior edge. *The whole concrete
threshold area should be either covered by the doorway's threshold or
the concrete should be sloping down and to the exterior, from the
doorway's threshold to the concrete's exterior edge. *I highly suspect
water is pooling (probably) all along the door's threshold... and
likely under the threshold.

I would suspect 1) someone may have changed the whole door and
framing, removing the original threshold that covered all the way to
the concrete's edge, and replaced it with the present door, with
smaller inadequate depth of threshold or 2) that doorway was
originally not constructed properly, with a proper threshold covering.

I would like to see a better pic of the whole bottom of the door and
the concrete slab.

Agreed, a close-up of the area below the threshold and the doorsill,
with the door open so we can see what is on the inside. It is liable
to be rotted also. Does the concrete slope away from the building,
with a noticeable slope????


Just to not repeat, see my other posts here. Hopefully without a pic,
you will understand. Thanks.
