Open your eyes. There is NO GROOVE. The approach is simply lower than the building floor. It has a footer and doesn't move, but snow will build up under the door when it blows. It's about the best design a sliding door can be in a cold climate.

I don't think its the best design for a sliding door. WWII hangers have manual sliding doors. Still plenty of these hangers being used today. Theres a track thats is almost like a piece of railroad track or could actually be RR track for all I know "can only see the top" thats just a hair below surface. Then wheels recessed up into door that rolls on the track. They have a weather strip that keeps out snow and rain. I've opened them with a foot of snow on the ground.
My point is. There are ways to keep weather and rain and Ice out of sliding doors like this or at least help the situation. Theres more than one way to skin a cat.

I have an idea but I'm not in the mood to get in a pissing match with a bunch of experts.

This made me lol, but its also very true. The opposite end of my building has a 10x12 overhead door but in the summers I'm always tinkering with the cars. So I thought Id turn this area by the sliding door into Cub Corner, and make it easy to get out to mow or whatever. In the winter the cars will be in storage mode so Ill have enty of room to use the overhead door. But since I bought a meyer plow and a dodge to hang it on, we dont really get enough snow to plow anyway. Go figure.

Makes me think of when my gf and I first got together and she was unfamiliar with cubs. She thought they were "club cadets" because I also have a club car golfcart, she thought they were made by the same company

Please proceed. I'm no expert myself. I'm not the one that claimed my idea was the best way. I'm sure the OP would like to hear your idea

So i just finished this up. The main thing I was after was cheap. Total investment here? $9 for some stakes and some deck screws. I scrounged through the previous home owners lumber pile and found a 4x4 and some 2x4 cutoffs. I also found part of a bowling alley lane but it broke when I laid it down. I really wanted to use it too...oh well. In the course of moving here, I seemed to have lost my circular saw, so all this was done with a sawzall. Dont laugh, it worked. I put the 4x4 close to the door, then built a box off it. Since I couldnt cut the 2x4 at an angle, I just buried one end in the gravel. Its 62" wide so its plenty big enough for my 1641. I can easily move this thing if needed and I only plan to use it during mowing season so the snow and ice wasnt really a concern for me. Thanks to everybody for the ideas!

Jeff

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
