Pemko 18062CNB48 Door Bottom Sweep Nylon Brush 48 in

Product Description

The PEMKO 18062CNB48 is a nylon brush door bottom sweep designed to seal the gap between the bottom of a door and the threshold or floor surface. The aluminum insert housing holds a nylon bristle brush that flexes against the floor as the door moves, blocking drafts, dust, insects, and light infiltration without dragging or binding. The sweep measures 48 inches in length and stands 1.5 inches high, making it suitable for standard door widths. The aluminum housing carries a clear anodized finish that resists corrosion and blends with most commercial and residential door hardware. This type of sweep is typically installed by door hardware specialists, general contractors, or facilities maintenance technicians.

The 18062CNB48 is used on the bottom edge of interior or exterior doors where a flexible, low-friction seal is needed. The nylon brush style is well suited for applications where the floor surface is uneven, has a low-profile threshold, or experiences frequent door cycling. Common installations include commercial office doors, utility room doors, warehouse entry doors, and residential exterior doors. The clear anodized aluminum housing complements natural aluminum or light-finish door frames.

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or new-installation door bottom sweep for standard residential and light commercial doors with a door bottom width of up to 48 inches. Field-cuttable aluminum housing allows trimming to exact door width.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a door hardware technician, carpenter, or facilities maintenance professional. Before installing, verify the door bottom gap measurement and trim the sweep to the correct door width using a fine-tooth metal saw or aviation snips. Secure the housing to the door face or door bottom per the fastener pattern using appropriate screws for the door material. Adjust bristle contact so the brush lightly grazes the floor surface without causing the door to bind or drag.
