I've been searching for a while for a product to seal the bottom of my
Garage door to prevent rain ingress. Found an american product on the web
called stormshield but I've been unable to find a supplier here. Any one
have any ideas where I could buy or make up a similar thing?

Any help much appreciated!

I had exactly this problem 2 years ago!
I have a metal door which has a slot along the bottom with a thin
rubber strip running in it. This had got worn and split and could not
find any decent rubber seals.

I noticed a row of square holes along
the bottom inside of the door! Went to a decent tool shop and bought
some "captive nuts" which fitted in the holes perfectly.
I had some old strips of aluminium, put some holes in it and
bought a role of 60 by 4mm rubber, Sandwiched it between the door
and strip and it works a treat.

I live near Bristol and there is/was a firm which sold rubber sheeting in
the city centre.

I realise you may not have the same door construction but the principle
may be of help!
