I answered a question about drainage and what I did to solve it quite a while ago. I'm not a company and don't want to be. All you have to do, is loosen the fasteners holding the bottom frame to the concrete and place a spacer under it and then re-tighten the fasteners. I used a section of wire tie for a spacer, but if you took a tupperware lid and cut some strips about 1/4" by 1" long it would work good. Any spacer about 1/16 thick will do the job as long as it doesn't rust. Use a screwdriver to pry up the bottom frame to get the spacer in. Hope this helps.
