The slide in my trailer is a Schwintek which is a bit different than yours but does the same job. On mine, the slide floor is approx. 1/8" above the main floor when opened or closed. The leading edge of the slide is carpeted and slants down to the main floor. Not sure if it was intended by the manufacturer but it acts as a sweeper seal and clears any debris that is on the floor as it closes and prevents things from getting stuck under the slide floor, which will create havoc on the vinyl.
My slide when extended has a slight tilt down, which lets the rain run off instead of into the trailer through any openings in the rubber seals. Again I am not sure if this built into the design or not but the slide operates well and no water on the inside.
Not knowing how much of a gap between your slide floor and the trailer floor and how much of a tilt to your extended slide is difficult to tell without more information. You will have to identify the make and type of slide you have and find the manual on adjustments for it. There are some manuals on this site and Google can be of help, as well.
