glideslope deviation

I have done a search but no joy.

How many feet low, is one dot low on he ILS when you are at 300ft, 200ft and 100ft?

I imagine different ILS's are different but for a standard 5% or 3 degree slope.

I ask because in visual conditions at my home port I like to take a visual aiming point in order to touch down about 1200ft into the runway (b 737) . The glideslope will always start to drift up showing me low on the ils. It doesn't bother anyone day VMC but I'm keen to know how low I am. The ILS is set up for a 78ft TCH and I want a 50ft TCH.

Thanks for your time, CJAM
