Patio door sealing / drainage - Help

[Karlb]

Hi,

I recently had some patio doors installed and have a question on weather proofing the bottom.

The patio doors are installed with a flush tracked that is directly on top of the DPC, two bricks high above the outside ground level.

Now in order for the doors to be installed level they have put in packers, giving a 2-3mm gap along the bellow of the track.

My thoughts are to install a account drain in front of the doors at the kitchen floor level and then slope the patio away so that water does not get into the house, howevere I am concerned about the gap under the doors and was thinking that some kind of epoxy grout should be infected to the underside to seal the gap

Your help and ideas are welcome

Thanks
Karl

if you look at your fensa certificate any replacement door or window must be sealed inside and out
they should have run some silicon in the gap

Just silicon? Somehow that does not seem enough

silicone is fine for this job. Some fitters use a flexible putty to bed the frame on but silicone is fine in your instance.

The drainage of the threshold and patio is obivously a whole seperate matter and nothing to do with the window fitters.
