NGP NGP-197NA – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the NGP 197NA neoprene door sweep designed for?
This door sweep provides weathersealing for commercial and residential doors. The anodized aluminum frame with neoprene blade blocks drafts, dust, and insects while allowing smooth door operation.
2) What door types and sizes work with this sweep?
Compatible with standard hinged doors up to 1-3/4 inches thick. Verify your door width matches the sweep length. Check door clearance to ensure proper blade contact with threshold.
3) How does the anodized aluminum finish perform?
Anodized aluminum resists corrosion and wear better than painted finishes. Suitable for interior and exterior applications. The finish maintains appearance in varied weather conditions.
4) What are the key installation requirements?
Mount to door bottom using provided screws. Adjust blade height to contact floor or threshold without binding. Pre-drill holes to prevent splitting. Follow manufacturer template for proper positioning.
5) How long does the neoprene blade typically last?
Neoprene blades resist cracking and maintain flexibility in temperature extremes. Expect 3-5 years of service life with normal use. High-traffic doors may require more frequent replacement.
6) Can this sweep work with uneven floors?
The flexible neoprene blade conforms to minor floor irregularities. For significant gaps or uneven surfaces, consider adjustable door sweeps or threshold modifications for optimal sealing.
7) What tools are needed for installation?
Basic tools include drill, drill bits, screwdriver, measuring tape, and pencil. Use appropriate drill bit size for mounting screws. Level helps ensure straight installation.
8) How do I maintain this door sweep?
Clean periodically with mild soap and water. Check mounting screws for tightness. Inspect neoprene blade for wear or damage. Replace when blade loses flexibility or shows significant wear.
9) Are replacement parts available?
Check with manufacturer for replacement neoprene blades. Some models allow blade replacement without removing entire sweep assembly. Verify part compatibility before ordering.
10) What similar door sweep options exist?
Alternative sweeps include brush-style, rubber blade, and adjustable height models. Browse our door hardware selection for compatible weatherstripping solutions.
11) Does this sweep affect door swing clearance?
The sweep adds minimal thickness to door bottom. Verify adequate clearance over carpets or raised thresholds. Adjust door stops if needed to prevent binding during operation.
