Abstract: A temporary water barrier for residential and commercial doors. The temporary water barrier is an inflatable bladder that is configured to be installed in a doorway and inflated to create a barrier to water within the jam of the door or opening beneath the door. The elongate bladder has sealed ends, an inflation valve to communicate an inflation fluid to an interior of the bladder. A resilient seal may be provided along one or more of a top surface and a bottom surface of the bladder. A notch may be defined in the bladder with the notch dimensioned to fit around a hinge supporting the door in the doorway.
