Garage door gutters/sewer grates?

[tankd0g]

Maybe I'm not getting the terminology right here, but I've been to all the major places that sell rain gutter/weeping tile/water pipe etc. and no one even knows what I'm talking about. Since I can't have a floor drain in my slab, I want to have a grate along the front of the garage door so I can squeegee water into it and have it be carried off to the ditch. Aside from just forming and pouring a gutter and getting a metal grate for it, does anyone make a drop in product that would save me the trouble?

There is.
I think its still considered a drain. Just not sure the exact type.
I know that's not much help.
Nor is my telling you that this guy building a garage and house in Trinidad used one. Hotrodtt I think.
Its in the gallery section. Maybe search Trinidad. Or Doubles. Might get you more info.

If youve got any in your area, you might inquire at an ag store for a good price. Lots of those used as barn gutters.

I never thought of that, there is a farmers CO-OP just down the road I should check out.

Lowes and Home Depot both carry Trench Drains and all the accessories. Heavy duty and work well.
