Pemko 270A72 Saddle Threshold Mill Finish Aluminum 72in

Product Description

The PEMKO 270A72 is a mill finish aluminum saddle threshold designed for commercial and residential door openings. Measuring 72 inches in length, 4 inches in width, and 0.25 inches in height, this low-profile saddle profile bridges the gap between the door bottom and the finished floor surface. The aluminum construction resists corrosion and wear under high-traffic conditions. Licensed door hardware installers and finish carpenters typically specify this threshold as part of a complete door assembly. Its saddle shape accommodates a smooth transition between floor surfaces on either side of the opening, reducing trip hazards at the threshold.

The 270A72 is suited for standard single-door or paired-door openings in both interior and exterior applications where a low-profile aluminum saddle threshold is required. It is commonly installed in light commercial buildings, multi-family residential entryways, and institutional doorways. At 72 inches, the threshold spans a full standard door width with material available for field-trimming to exact rough opening dimensions where needed.

Key Features

• Mill finish aluminum construction resists corrosion in high-traffic door openings
• Saddle profile provides a low-profile transition between floor surfaces
• 72-inch length fits standard single and paired door openings
• 4-inch width and 0.25-inch height minimize trip hazard at the threshold
• Field-trimmable to match exact door opening dimensions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style saddle threshold for standard residential and light commercial door frames requiring a 72-inch aluminum threshold in mill finish.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed door hardware installer, finish carpenter, or general contractor. Fasten the threshold to the subfloor or door sill per the door frame manufacturer guidelines, using appropriate fasteners for the substrate material. Verify that the door bottom clearance is compatible with the threshold height before fastening. Always follow local building codes, including ADA transition height requirements, when selecting and positioning the threshold.
