NGP 17DKB-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What length rain drip guard do I need for a double door entrance?
The NGP 17DKB comes in two lengths: 36 inches for a single door opening and 72 inches for a double door or pair. Measure the head of the opening and pick the length that covers the full frame width, since the guard's job is to shed water off the head before it runs down onto the frame and threshold.
2) How far does the NGP 17DKB drip guard stick out from the door frame?
The extrusion measures 3/4 inch wide by 1-1/2 inch tall, so it projects 3/4 inch off the face it is mounted to. That is worth checking against anything close to the head of the opening, a closer arm, an overhead stop, or a card reader housing, before you drill.
3) Can I install a rain drip guard without drilling into the frame?
Yes. NGP's FATT (Fast Attach Tape) option lets you mount the 17DKB adhesively where fasteners are not preferred, which comes up on aluminum storefront headers and on anything you would rather not penetrate. The standard method is mechanical: the guard ships with #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws and has slotted holes so you can shift it up or down before final tightening.
4) Does the NGP 17DKB drip guard come with mounting screws?
Screws are included: #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel SMS. Stainless matters here because the guard sits in the wettest spot on the opening, and a plated steel screw at that interface is the first thing to rust and streak the finish.
5) Will a dark bronze drip guard match my existing door hardware finish?
The 17DKB is finished dark bronze, which is the standard coordinating finish for bronze storefront and commercial door hardware. If you are matching a fleet of openings across a property, the model number itself carries the finish, so reordering 17DKB gets you the same dark bronze on every opening.
6) Is the NGP 17DKB rain drip guard suitable for exterior commercial doors?
That is exactly what it is built for. The extrusion is 6063 aluminum in T5 temper, a corrosion-resistant alloy for exterior use, and NGP lists it as a commercial product rather than a residential one. Typical placements are office and retail entrances, schools and healthcare, government buildings, warehouse entries, and multi-family common entries.
7) Do I mount a rain drip guard on the door or on the frame above it?
A drip guard like the 17DKB goes at the head of the opening so runoff is thrown clear of the door frame and threshold instead of tracking down into the hardware. The slotted screw holes are there so you can fine-tune the height as you set it, getting the drip edge past the door face for a tight weather seal.
8) Can I cut the 72 inch drip guard down to fit my opening?
Yes. 6063-T5 aluminum cuts cleanly with a miter saw and a non-ferrous blade, so the 72 inch 17DKB can be trimmed to an odd opening width. Cut from one end and keep the factory end at the more exposed side. If your opening is close to a single door width, ordering the 36 inch length saves the cut altogether.
