Hi all, posting for the first time.
Just assembled a Keter Scala shed. All aligned up properly but there is a gap between the double doors which will certainly let rain in. Not sure what adjustments I can make apart from put in some kind of seal on the inside or outside. Any suggestions on the kind of seal I would use for this purpose please?

Pictures of the gap and the left door where a seal could possibly be fitted.
Thank you very much.

A door height plastic strip of suitable width attached by solvent weld glue to the stop on the left hand door.

Oh! thank you for the suggestion. I was thinking along similar lines but didn't know what exactly to get. Do these have a particular name so I can google to buy one?
 
These plastic sheds are hugely influenced by any base that isn't completely flat.....any discrepancy always affects any gaps.
One thought is to pop rivet a length of aluminium plate - say 60mm x 3mm thick or whatever - fixed to the closing door.
Helps security too, to a small degree.

Thank you John. We have moved the shed onto a firm base and the problem still exists. I'll check out the plate as well. Rivets could be a bit complicated for me! Also waiting for a good downpour to work out how the problem is!

A firm base also needs to be dead level, Anna - or the shed will be the shape of a parallelogram which will give door gap issues.
Anyway, if you need some other seal, nuts and bolts or self tapping screws can replace pop rivets if you like.
