Pemko 172D72 Saddle Threshold 72 in Dark Bronze Aluminum

Product Description

The PEMKO 172D72 is a saddle-style door threshold manufactured from aluminum with a dark bronze anodized finish. It spans 72 inches (6 feet) in length, stands 0.5 inches in height, and measures 6 inches in width, making it suited for standard commercial and residential door openings. The threshold bridges the gap between a door and the floor, providing a durable transition surface that resists wear from heavy foot traffic. Licensed contractors and commercial door hardware installers typically specify this unit during new construction or renovation work where a finished, weather-resistant threshold is required.

The 172D72 is appropriate for single or double door applications in commercial buildings, institutional facilities, and high-traffic residential settings. Its dark bronze anodized finish integrates with common door frame finishes and anodized aluminum door systems. The saddle profile provides a low-profile transition suitable for accessible entrances where floor-level changes must be minimized. This threshold is commonly installed during door frame rough-in or as a direct replacement for worn saddle thresholds in existing openings.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Saddle thresholds of this type are installed by commercial door hardware technicians or finish carpenters during door frame completion or threshold replacement. The existing door and hardware should be removed or held open before fitting and fastening the threshold to the subfloor or sill. Fastener type and spacing should conform to the door frame substrate and applicable local building codes. Verify door sweep or door bottom clearance after installation to ensure proper contact and seal.
