How to measure for your Cleverseal Door Dam™

Follow these 3 easy steps to ensure you correctly measure for your Cleverseal Door Dam™. Installed behind the garage door guide track, Door Dam is a hard-wearing floor mounted garage threshold seal that provides an effective mini dam inside the line of your garage door.

 1.CHOOSE INSTALLATION TYPE

Start by looking at the inside of your garage to decide what is the best solution to install Door Dam either wall to wall, catchment, or catchment to wall.

Wall to wall: Wall to wall if there is less than 300mm of wall either side of door opening.

Catchment: If there is more than 500mm of wall on both sides of the door opening.

Wall to catchment: If there is less than 300mm of wall on one side, and more than 500mm on the other side of the door opening.


  1. MEASURE

Wall to wall: Measure the complete width of the garage internally, wall to wall. This will give you the overall length of Door Dam required.

Catchment: Measure from back of guide track “A” to the back of guide track “B”. Add 100mm to this measurement to give you length “E”.

Each catchment corner kit includes;

  • 1 x Moulded corner
  • 1 x 200mm length of Door Dam G3 and yellow safety strip 
  • Fixings. 

Wall to catchment: If installing wall to catchment (as diagram) place tape measure at wall “A” and measure across the garage toping to the outside of the door track “B”. Add 50mm to that measurement to give you the length of the longest piece “C”.

Each catchment corner kit includes;

  • 1 x Moulded corner
  • 1 x 200mm length of Door Dam G3 and yellow safety strip 
  • Fixings. 
    1. RECORD YOUR MEASUREMENTS
      Record all measurements in millimetres (mm). This will ensure accuracy of selecting the right size Door Dam for your garage.
