Abstract (en)
[origin: GB2479470A] The present invention provides an apparatus for flood-proofing a garage with a single panel garage door 1, preferably an up and over door or overhead door. The apparatus comprises a first sealing member 2 for mounting to an inner surface of the garage door 1, a second sealing member 6 and mounting means 4 for mounting the second sealing member 6 in a cooperative position to the first sealing member 2. When closed the garage door 1 presses the first sealing member 2 into the second sealing member 6, thereby forming a waterproof seal. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the apparatus also comprises a vehicle supporting ramp 5 for positioning on the floor of the garage 3 adjacent the supporting member 4 to prevent the supporting member 4 and second sealing member 6 being damaged as a vehicle enters and leaves the garage. The seal may include interlocking gaskets and outer portions of the second seal 6 may wrap around the first seal 2 when engaged (Fig. 4).
