Pemko 2005AT36 Latching Panic Exit Saddle Thermoseal 36in

Product Description

The PEMKO 2005AT36 is a latching panic exit saddle with ThermoSeal, designed for installation at the base of panic exit door openings where thermal sealing and low-profile threshold performance are required. Measuring 36.5 inches in length, 5 inches in width, and 0.5 inches in height, this saddle bridges the gap between the door bottom and the floor while accommodating the throw of a panic device latch. The mill finish aluminum construction resists corrosion and suits high-traffic commercial door openings. It ships as a single unit and weighs 1.02 pounds.

This threshold saddle is suited for commercial and institutional applications where panic hardware is present on exit doors. It is commonly installed on hollow metal or aluminum door frames in schools, office buildings, and assembly occupancies. The ThermoSeal feature provides a basic thermal break at the door sill, reducing air infiltration at the threshold plane. Licensed door hardware specialists and commercial door installers typically handle this fitting during new construction or hardware replacement scopes.

Key Features

• Latching panic exit saddle design accommodates panic device latch projection at the sill
• ThermoSeal construction reduces air infiltration at the threshold
• Mill finish aluminum provides corrosion resistance in commercial environments
• Low-profile 0.5-inch height supports ADA-compliant door opening transitions
• 36.5-inch length fits standard 36-inch door openings
• Single-unit (EA) packaging for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation threshold saddle for 36-inch commercial panic exit doors requiring a latching saddle with thermal sealing at the sill.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed door hardware technician or commercial contractor. Ensure the panic exit device is fully disengaged and the door is secured open before fitting the saddle. The threshold should be fastened to the floor substrate per the hardware manufacturer's instructions and in accordance with applicable building codes. Verify that the final installed height does not create a trip hazard and conforms to ADA threshold height requirements.
