Installation

Is my door/entrance suitable for installing AquaDefender?

You place the AquaDefender in the frame on the threshold. Keep in mind that the AquaDefender only seals properly if it is installed on a flat threshold. You need a minimum threshold of 6 cm for inward-opening doors. For outward-opening doors, a minimum threshold of 4 cm is required. This should be measured with the door closed.
