Are your doors or windows leaking from the top? DOORBRIM rain guards for houses stop leaks and drips. In addition, the life of your doors, frames and hardware will be prolonged for many additional years.
DOORBRIM rain diverters are an economical way to protect door and window openings without sufficient overhangs. Protect your doors, windows, jambs , trim and hardware from damage and leaks.

Why buy the DOORBRIM brand?
Our awnings are superior to competitor metal flashings in several aspects. Unlike our competitors products made of steel, DOORBRIM awnings will never rust and will last a lifetime. A huge difference is the integrated front gutter. DOORBRIM awnings project a full 7 1/2″ away from the wall compared to small metal drip edges without front gutters. The front gutter will not only prevent dripping but will direct water out and away from building structures. Extend the life of your doors, windows and hardware with DOORBRIM awnings. A great alternative against expensive repairs and replacement, our awnings are easily installed with minimum tools. I am a prior property maintenance manager and realize firsthand the value in spending wisely. However, it will be prudent to consider that our products will also protect & preserve your doors, jambs & hardware for many additional years. You don’t have to wait for the inevitable deterioration and leaks from normal weather and UV rays. A DOORBRIM rain diverter is cheap insurance compared to a future repair and/or replacement.
