NGP 12TDKB36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which door shoe should I use on a fire-rated opening instead of the NGP 12T?
For a fire-rated opening, look at the Pemko 210 or the Pemko 215. The 210 is a fire-rated door bottom shoe in aluminum construction with an Eco-V insert, furnished in a 36 inch length. The 215 is fire-rated as well, carries a UL10C certification, and adds a rain drip to the shoe. The NGP 12T is a thermoplastic door shoe on an aluminum alloy 6063 T5 base rated for service from 0 F to 140 F, which suits general weatherization work on commercial openings.
2) I need a door shoe with a rain drip for an exterior entrance - what takes the place of the NGP 12T?
The NGP 12T is a flat thermoplastic shoe with vinyl fins and no drip feature. Where the opening is exposed and water needs to be thrown clear of the sill, the Pemko 211V is an L-shaped door shoe with a rain drip and a GREENGUARD Gold certified Eco-V insert, and the Pemko 215 combines a rain drip with a fire-rated, UL10C certified shoe. Both put a projecting lip across the face of the door that the 12T does not have.
3) What is the closest equivalent to the NGP 12T door shoe from another manufacturer?
The Cal-Royal DS-403 is the nearest straight equivalent - it is an aluminum door shoe with a vinyl insert, the same basic construction as the 12T, which pairs an aluminum alloy 6063 T5 base with soft vinyl fins. The Pemko 209 is the other close match, a door bottom shoe built on a 1/2 inch x 1-3/8 inch profile with an Eco-V vinyl insert. All three mount to the bottom of the door face and seal against the threshold with a vinyl element rather than a brush or a drop bar.
4) What screws come with the NGP 12T door shoe, or do I need to supply my own?
Mounting hardware is furnished: #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws ship with the 12T door shoe, so the aluminum base can be fastened straight to the door bottom out of the carton. Stainless is the right call on an exterior opening where a plated screw would rust into the aluminum.
5) Door shoe or door sweep for the bottom of an exterior door?
A door shoe like the NGP 12T wraps the bottom edge of the door in an aluminum channel and carries the vinyl fins under it, so it seals the bottom edge as well as the gap and takes the abrasion on the metal instead of the seal. A surface-applied sweep only screws to the face of the door and covers the gap. Pick the shoe where the door bottom itself is exposed to weather or where you want the seal protected from being kicked off; pick a sweep when the door bottom is not accessible or you do not want to remove the door to install.
6) Will an NGP 12T door shoe hold up on an unheated warehouse or a hot southern exposure?
The 12T is rated for service from 0 F to 140 F, which covers an unconditioned warehouse dock door or a dark door in full sun. Below zero, the thermoplastic fins are outside their stated range. The base is 6063 T5 aluminum alloy, so the metal itself is corrosion resistant in wet exterior use.
7) Can I get the NGP 12T door shoe in bronze to match dark bronze storefront doors?
Both finishes are stocked: mill aluminum and dark bronze, each in 36 inch and 48 inch. Dark bronze is the one to order against anodized bronze storefront or dark painted hollow metal. On the mill finish, the thermoplastic fin itself is dark brown.
8) What is the NF suffix on an NGP 12T door shoe?
NF gets you notched fins. Order it when the fins would otherwise run into something at the bottom of the opening, such as an astragal, a rod, or a bottom-rod strike, and you need the fin relieved at that point rather than a continuous run. Standard, unsuffixed 12T ships with full fins.
9) What else could I use instead of an NGP 12T vinyl door shoe?
The straight cross-brand equivalents ZenSupply carries are the Cal-Royal DS-403 aluminum door shoe with vinyl insert and the Pemko 209 door shoe with an Eco-V vinyl insert on a 1/2 x 1-3/8 inch profile. All three are the same idea, an aluminum channel over the door bottom carrying a replaceable vinyl seal. Where a project spec calls for low-emitting materials, the Pemko 211V insert is GREENGUARD Gold certified.
10) Is the Pemko 211V a drop-in substitute for the NGP 12T?
They are not interchangeable in profile. The Pemko 211V is an L-shaped shoe carrying a rain drip, so it projects out from the door face and changes the clearance at the jamb and any adjacent stop or astragal. The NGP 12T is a straight thermoplastic shoe with a mill aluminum or dark bronze base and vinyl fins in 36 inch and 48 inch lengths. If the existing shoe is a flat profile and the surrounding hardware was set to it, the Pemko 209, a door bottom shoe on a 1/2 inch x 1-3/8 inch profile, stays closer to that geometry.
11) If a project specifies a low-emitting sealing product, which door shoe meets that instead of the NGP 12T?
The Pemko 211V carries a GREENGUARD Gold certified Eco-V insert, which is the one in the comparable group written to that kind of specification; it is an L-shaped shoe with a rain drip, so confirm the projecting profile clears the opening. The NGP 12T is a thermoplastic shoe with flame resistant and moisture-resistant properties on an aluminum alloy 6063 T5 base, suited to commercial weatherization where a straight profile is wanted.
12) Can I replace just the vinyl on an NGP 12T instead of the whole door shoe?
The 12T is built as a rigid aluminum base with soft vinyl fins, two separate materials, which is why the fins are the part that wears and the base stays. When you are restocking a building, the practical approach is to standardize the whole fleet of exterior doors on one shoe and one finish so the replacement parts on the shelf fit every opening.
