Pemko 3151CN36 Door Bottom Sweep 36 in Epdm Clear Aluminum

Product Description

The PEMKO 3151CN36 is a door bottom sweep designed to seal the gap between the bottom of a door and the threshold or floor surface. It features a 1-inch EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber insert housed in a clear anodized aluminum channel. EPDM is well suited for exterior and interior door applications because it resists weathering, UV exposure, and temperature cycling. The sweep installs on the interior face of the door bottom and compresses against the floor as the door closes, blocking drafts, dust, light, and moisture infiltration. Commercial door installers and finish carpenters are the primary trades that install this product.

The 3151CN36 is sized for a 36-inch (3-foot) door and is a standard fit for residential and light commercial entry doors, interior corridor doors, and utility doors where perimeter sealing is required. It is appropriate for new construction and retrofit applications. The clear aluminum finish suits unpainted aluminum door frames and natural metal aesthetics without requiring additional finishing. The EPDM seal material performs across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for both climate-controlled and unconditioned spaces such as storage rooms, mechanical rooms, and exterior entries.

Key Features

• 1-inch EPDM rubber seal provides durable compression sealing against drafts, moisture, dust, and light
• Clear anodized aluminum housing resists corrosion and requires no additional finishing
• 36-inch door width coverage fits standard residential and light commercial door sizes
• Lightweight construction at 0.75 pounds for straightforward handling and installation
• Surface-mount design installs on the interior face of the door bottom without undercutting the door

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation door bottom sweep for standard 36-inch interior and exterior doors in residential and light commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by commercial door hardware installers or finish carpenters using standard hand tools. The sweep is typically fastened to the door face with screws through the aluminum housing. Before installation, verify that the door has adequate clearance at the bottom to accommodate the sweep profile without binding against the threshold or floor finish. Adjust the sweep height so the EPDM seal makes consistent contact across the full door width without excessive drag that could cause premature wear or interfere with door operation.
