NGP 430EDKB-48 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What length does the NGP 430EDKB saddle threshold come in for a standard 36 inch door?
The 430EDKB is sold in 48 inch and 72 inch lengths. For a standard 3-0 opening you take the 48 inch piece and cut it down to the frame width; the 72 inch length is there for pairs of doors or wide openings. It is a 10 inch wide by 1/2 inch tall profile, so the run you cut carries that same section end to end.
2) Is a 10 inch wide threshold too wide for my door frame?
At 10 inches wide the 430EDKB is a wide saddle, meant to run under the door and out past the frame on both faces. It suits an exterior opening where the sill has to be covered and drainage or an out-swing sweep needs the extra bearing surface. If your opening only has room for a narrow saddle between stops, a slimmer profile fits better, for example the Pemko 272 Series flat saddle at 1/4 inch by 6 inches.
3) How high does the NGP 430EDKB threshold sit, and will the door clear it?
Half an inch of rise. The 430EDKB stands 1/2 inch tall, so the door bottom has to clear that plus whatever sweep or shoe you hang on it. Undercut the door accordingly before you set the saddle, since a 1/2 inch saddle under a door cut for a flush sill will bind.
4) Do I need a fire rated threshold instead of the NGP 430EDKB?
For an exterior entrance the 430EDKB is a straightforward weather saddle with a vinyl foot seal. If the opening you are working on is a rated assembly and the spec calls out a fire rated saddle, look at the Cal-Royal CR3700 Series, which is a saddle threshold with a 3-hour positive pressure fire rating, or the Cal-Royal CR2000 Series, listed as fire rated and ADA compliant.
5) Can the Pemko 272 be used in place of the NGP 430E on a fire-rated door?
Treat those as different decisions. The Pemko 272 is stated as an ADA compliant flat saddle threshold, 1/4 inch by 6 inches, in heavy-duty aluminum. Fire rating is stated on the Cal-Royal parts: the CR2000 is described as fire rated and ADA compliant, and the CR3700 carries a 3-hour positive pressure fire rating. If the label on the opening drives the selection, the Cal-Royal saddles are the ones that state a fire rating.
6) Does the NGP 430EDKB threshold need to be caulked in?
No. The 430EDKB carries a vinyl foot seal along the underside that takes the place of caulk at the sill, which is what keeps water and air from tracking underneath. Set it down onto a clean, flat sill and the seal does the work.
7) Does the NGP 430EDKB saddle threshold come with fasteners?
Screws are included: #10 x 1-1/2 inch flat head zinc plated wood screws. Those are wood screws, so for a concrete or masonry sill you will need to supply your own anchors and sleeves. Nothing else is required to mount it.
8) Is the NGP 430EDKB threshold slippery when wet?
The top face is fluted, which gives traffic something to bite on rather than a smooth mill surface. For wet entries, loading docks, or anywhere you want more than that, NGP offers an SIA slip-resistant finish on this saddle.
9) What is the difference between the NGP 430EDKB and the Pemko 272 flat saddle?
Two different jobs. The 430EDKB is a 10 inch wide, 1/2 inch tall fluted saddle with a vinyl foot seal, built to seal an exterior sill against weather. The Pemko 272 Series is a flat saddle at 1/4 inch by 6 inches, described as ADA compliant, and it is the one to use for an interior transition or where a low, narrow profile matters more than weather sealing.
10) What is a simpler saddle threshold than the NGP 430E when no weather seal is needed?
The 430E carries a vinyl foot seal that takes the place of caulking at the floor line, which is what an exterior or weather-exposed opening wants. On an interior opening where nothing is being sealed out, the Pemko 272 is a plain flat saddle threshold, 1/4 inch by 6 inches, in heavy-duty aluminum - a bare transition plate with no seal element and a lower rise over the floor.
11) Will a dark bronze threshold match my existing bronze door hardware?
The 430EDKB is finished dark bronze throughout, which is what you want under a door with dark bronze closers, pulls, or an anodized bronze storefront frame. Property managers standardizing a building on one look can run the same saddle at every exterior opening, since both stock lengths carry the same 10 inch by 1/2 inch dark bronze profile.
12) Can I cut the NGP 430EDKB threshold to length on site?
Yes. It is a 6063-T5 aluminum extrusion with a uniform section, so it cuts clean on a miter saw with a non-ferrous blade. Order the 48 inch for single openings and the 72 inch for pairs or wide frames, then trim to the measured frame width and drill through for the supplied #10 x 1-1/2 inch flat head screws.
