    Default Weather seal: Roller doors

    I have a side shed with a roller door. The wind blows dust and junk under the door (uneven floor) and over the top (2-3" gap). Is there a supplier of the truck wheel arch bristle stuff in Melbourne?

    Or, does anyone know of a nice and simple method to stop wind blowing junk in all the time?

    What about screwing a rubber skirt (like a mudflap) on the bottom of the doors?

    Raven seals make a brush seal that is suitable for this application.
