I've used that rubbery threshold under / behind my roller door and it's been totally successful. I also used that Stixall "hybrid" adhesive and it hasn't failed anywhere. The clever part was looking at the ends where it met the pillars and sealing that too, to avoid water creeping round. This stopped the puddles forming inside the doorway when we had heavy rain (the concrete floor isn't level and slopes the wrong way). |

For a double pitched roof (like the main workshop) we have moulded ridge pieces in the fibre cement material that fit neatly into the corrugations each side of the ridge (visible in one of the pictures - photo #7 of post #546) - I'm not aware of a barge board equivalent ie flat on one branch of the L and corrugations on the other - anyway one isn't fitted but it would be a good solution if it exists and not impossible to retro-fit. |

Cast one in place? Yeah I know........:loco: |

A bit of googling shows me that they ARE available in 1 metre lengths, ie one roof sheet widths at about £20 each so about £100 for what I need. They are called Eaves Corrugation Closers. I think the foam and gunge wins at the moment :clap: |

Could you use wide sheet metal flashing? So it extends well over the edge and well back onto the corrugations. Notch around the corrugations so it sits quite close. Of course the angles may have done my head in and I'm missing the point... I think there is also a lead replacement sheet material that can be dressed into the profile. -russ |
