How to fix uPVC door that lets in rain at the bottom?
My PVC front door does not sit snugly in its frame at the bottom. Basically, it curves out a little bit from the frame in the middle. This results in rain getting in as the seal is not tight.
Does anyone know if there is anything I can do about this?
Depends on the door and the sills. Here are a few ways to fix this: http://www.upvcwindowsanddoors.org/how-to-fix-upvc-doors-that-let-in-rain-at-the-bottom/

Hi Jo
I would suggest, if not already fitted, in buying a weather strip, there are various ways to fit them, but basically install it 10mm above the bottom of your door WHEN ITS CLOSED.
Hope this helps mate
