NGP 149MB 96 SET – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the NGP 149MB magnetic astragal work on a pair of 8 foot doors?
Yes. The 149MB set covers 96 inches, which is the standard 8 foot door height, and it ships as a two-piece set, one piece per leaf of the pair. The slotted screw holes let you shift each half during mounting so the two halves meet cleanly when the doors close.
2) How does a magnetic astragal seal a pair of doors differently from a T-astragal or brush astragal?
A magnetic astragal like the NGP 149MB pulls the two leaves together as they close, with the magnet encased in gray vinyl and a PVC seal making the contact. That gets you alignment plus a seal on a pair with no mullion. A mechanical T-astragal such as the Cal-Royal EAST-501 uses an aluminum T section with a vinyl insert and relies on the overlap itself, and a brush type like the Pemko 300 Series uses a self-adjusting pile brush instead of a compression seal. Brush is more forgiving of doors that do not meet evenly; magnetic gives a tighter closed-position seal and helps the pair sit flush.
3) Is a magnetic astragal the right choice for doors that have a mortise or cylindrical lock in the meeting stile?
No. A magnetic astragal seals the gap between leaves and is not cut for lock hardware. When one leaf carries a lock at the meeting edge, you want a lock astragal, which is prepped for it: the Trimco 5001 in stainless steel is made for mortise or cylindrical locks, and the Trimco 5002, at 1-9/16 by 6 inches, is for cylindrical locks. Use the 149MB where the meeting stiles are clear.
4) I need an astragal on a labeled fire door pair. Can I use the NGP 149MB?
Specify a fire-rated gasket instead. The Pemko 369 split astragal seal with pile brush insert, 13/32 by 11/32 inch aluminum, is carried as fire-rated and is the one to look at for a labeled opening. Match the astragal to what the door label and the opening's listing call for.
5) What is the difference between the NGP 149MB magnetic astragal and the Pemko 300 Series adjustable astragal?
Both seal the meeting stiles of a pair of doors, but they close the gap by different means. The NGP 149MB is a two-piece magnetic set - a magnet encased in gray vinyl pulls the inactive and active leaf into alignment, with a PVC seal doing the sealing and aluminum alloy 6063 T5 temper forming the body. The Pemko 300 Series is an adjustable astragal that uses a self-adjusting pile brush against the opposing leaf instead of a magnet. On a pair that swings out of alignment or racks over time, the magnetic pull of the 149MB re-seats the leaves; where a softer sweep across an irregular gap is wanted, the brush of the 300 Series rides the variation.
6) I need an astragal for a fire-rated pair of doors - is the NGP 149MB the right part?
For a labeled pair, the Pemko 369 is the one to specify from the astragal group: it is a split astragal seal with a pile brush insert, 13/32 inch by 11/32 inch aluminum, and fire-rated. The NGP 149MB magnetic astragal set is built for commercial double door openings in aluminum alloy 6063 T5 with a PVC seal and a 0 F to 140 F operating range - use it on the corridor, office, retail and common-area pairs where the label is not driving the detail, and take the 369 where the door schedule calls out a fire rating.
7) Can a Trimco 5001 or 5002 lock astragal be used in place of the NGP 149MB?
No - those solve a different problem despite the shared word. The Trimco 5001 is a stainless steel lock astragal for use with mortise or cylindrical locks, and the Trimco 5002 is a stainless steel lock astragal measuring 1-9/16 inch by 6 inch for use with cylindrical locks. Both are short stainless pieces that shield the latch area of a pair. The NGP 149MB is a full-height two-piece magnetic astragal set in aluminum alloy 6063 T5 with a PVC seal, running the length of the meeting stile to seal the opening rather than to cover the lock. On a pair that needs both, they are ordered as separate items.
8) Do I need to buy screws separately for the NGP 149MB astragal?
No, fasteners come with it. The 149MB set includes #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws, and the mounting holes are slotted so you can adjust position before you drive them home.
9) Can I use a magnetic astragal on exterior doors that see freezing weather?
The 149MB is rated from 0 F to 140 F, so it holds up through normal freeze and summer heat in most climates. The extrusion is 6063 T5 aluminum alloy, which resists corrosion, and the seal is a PVC polymer that is flame and moisture resistant. Below 0 F you are outside the stated range.
10) What is the closest simple aluminum alternative to the NGP 149MB magnetic astragal set?
The Cal-Royal EAST-501 is the plainer version of the same job - an aluminum T-astragal with a vinyl insert for double doors. It is a single extrusion with an insert rather than the two-piece magnetic arrangement of the NGP 149MB, which carries a magnet in gray vinyl plus a PVC seal and mounts on slotted screw holes for alignment adjustment. Where the pair hangs true and all that is needed is to close the meeting-stile gap, the T-astragal profile of the EAST-501 does it; where the leaves need to be pulled together to seal consistently, that is what the magnetic set is for.
11) Which lock astragal goes with a cylindrical lock versus a mortise lock?
The Trimco 5001 is a stainless steel lock astragal specified for use with mortise or cylindrical locks, so it covers either prep. The Trimco 5002 is stainless steel at 1-9/16 inch by 6 inch and is specified for use with cylindrical locks. If the pair is getting a mortise lock, the 5001 is the one that matches; on a cylindrical prep, either applies and the 5002 gives the smaller 6 inch footprint.
12) Pile brush or PVC seal - which astragal type should I standardize on across a facility?
Two of the brush-type options are the Pemko 300 Series, an adjustable astragal with a self-adjusting pile brush, and the Pemko 369, a split astragal seal with a pile brush insert in 13/32 inch by 11/32 inch aluminum that is fire-rated. Brush seals tolerate uneven gaps and dirty environments. The NGP 149MB uses a PVC thermoplastic polymer seal formulated with a bio-based plasticizer, flame and moisture resistant, rated 0 F to 140 F, with a magnet encased in gray vinyl to hold the leaves closed - which is what makes it the choice where a positive, consistent contact seal matters on the pairs. Facilities running both labeled and unlabeled pairs commonly carry one of each type rather than forcing a single part across every opening.
13) Will a gold astragal match the brass hardware already on my building's doors?
The 149MB comes in a gold aluminum finish, and that is the only finish offered on this model. It reads as a warm brass-tone trim against door hardware in the same family. If your openings are aluminum or dark bronze, this piece will stand out rather than blend in.
14) Is the NGP 149MB astragal built for commercial traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. It is specified for commercial openings, with a 6063 T5 aluminum extrusion rather than a plastic or thin-gauge body, and it is used on office, school corridor, healthcare, retail storefront and multi-tenant common-area door pairs.
15) Can I cut the 96 inch astragal down for a shorter pair of doors?
Aluminum extrusion with a PVC seal cuts cleanly with a fine-tooth blade, so a 96 inch piece can be trimmed to a shorter leaf height. Because the mounting holes are slotted rather than fixed, you still get adjustment after cutting. Take the length off the bottom so the top of the seal stays square to the head.
