NGP 542-TAN-84IN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the NGP 542 astragal work on a 90-minute rated wood fire door?
Yes. The NGP 542 door edge astragal is UL certified for wood fire doors rated up to 90 minutes, and for hollow metal fire doors rated up to 3 hours. The certification is to CAN/ULC-S104 and ANSI/UL10B, and it complies with NFPA 80 and NFPA 252. If your opening is a wood door carrying a rating above 90 minutes, this edge is not the right part for it.
2) Is the NGP 542 edge astragal rated for positive pressure fire door assemblies?
It is. The 542 is UL certified to ANSI/UL10C for positive pressure applications and meets IBC, NFPA 80 and NFPA 252 requirements. That matters on newer commercial work where the inspector is looking for a positive pressure listed assembly, not just a UL10B legacy listing.
3) I need an astragal for a pair of double doors, not a single door edge. What should I use instead of the NGP 542?
The NGP 542 is a single beveled door edge astragal for 1-3/4 inch thick fire doors, applied to the edge of the door leaf. For a pair, the Cal-Royal EAST-501 is an aluminum T-astragal with a vinyl insert made for double doors, and the Pemko 300 Series is an adjustable astragal with a self-adjusting pile brush for double doors. The EAST-501 uses a vinyl insert for the seal, the Pemko 300 uses brush pile that self-adjusts to the gap between leaves.
4) What is the difference between the NGP 542 door edge astragal and a Pemko 369 split astragal?
They solve different parts of the same opening. The NGP 542 is a 20 gauge cold rolled steel single beveled door edge astragal, 84 inches long, made for 1-3/4 inch thick hollow metal and wood fire doors and UL certified to CAN/ULC-S104 and ANSI/UL10B, plus ANSI/UL10C for positive pressure. The Pemko 369 is a split astragal seal with a pile brush insert measuring 13/32 inch by 11/32 inch in aluminum, fire-rated. Choose the NGP 542 when you need a steel beveled edge applied to the door itself; choose the 369 when you need a small aluminum gasketing profile with brush to close the meeting stile gap on a pair.
5) Is a Trimco 5001 lock astragal a substitute for the NGP 542?
No. The Trimco 5001 is a stainless steel lock astragal intended for use with mortise or cylindrical locks, and the Trimco 5002 is a shorter stainless lock astragal at 1-9/16 inch by 6 inch for cylindrical locks. Those are short pieces that cover the latch area at the lock. The NGP 542 is a full 84 inch beveled door edge in 20 gauge cold rolled steel covering the entire door edge on a 1-3/4 inch fire door, UL certified to CAN/ULC-S104 and ANSI/UL10B. If you are protecting the latch and strike area only, the Trimco pieces apply; if you are edging the full leaf, they do not.
6) Which astragal should I specify on a UL fire-rated opening in a healthcare facility?
The NGP 542 is UL certified to CAN/ULC-S104 and ANSI/UL10B for hollow metal fire doors rated up to 3 hours and wood fire doors up to 90 minutes, and UL certified to ANSI/UL10C for positive pressure, complying with IBC, NFPA 80 and NFPA 252. Among the alternatives, the Pemko 369 split astragal seal with pile brush insert is also fire-rated. The Cal-Royal EAST-501 and the Pemko 300 Series are described as a T-astragal and an adjustable astragal for double doors respectively, so confirm the rating you need against the specific assembly listing before specifying them on a rated opening.
7) Does the NGP 542 astragal come with the screws to install it?
Fasteners are in the box. It ships with #8 x 3/4 inch flat undercut Phillips head sheet metal screws, so you are not sourcing hardware separately. Nothing else is required to mount the edge to the door.
8) What do I use if I just need to cover up an old lock prep or hole in the door edge?
That is a lock astragal, not a fire door edge. The Trimco 5001 stainless steel lock astragal works with mortise or cylindrical locks, and the Trimco 5002 is a 1-9/16 by 6 inch stainless version for cylindrical locks. The NGP 542 runs the full 84 inch height of the leaf and is a fire-rated edge, not a lock cover plate.
9) Steel or aluminum astragal - how do the NGP 542 and the Cal-Royal EAST-501 differ in construction?
The NGP 542 is 20 gauge cold rolled steel with a tan powder coat finish and ships with #8 x 3/4 inch flat undercut Phillips head sheet metal screws. The Cal-Royal EAST-501 is aluminum with a vinyl insert, built as a T-astragal for double doors. Steel with powder coat gives a harder edge surface on the door leaf; the aluminum T profile with vinyl carries the seal in the insert rather than in the metal.
10) Can I use the NGP 542 tan astragal on a residential door?
It is catalogued as a commercial product and built around commercial fire door assemblies, 1-3/4 inch leaves with UL10B and UL10C listings. It will physically mount on any 1-3/4 inch door, but the tan powder coat and 20 gauge steel edge are meant for office buildings, schools, healthcare, government and multi-tenant fire doors rather than a house.
11) What is the NGP 542 made of, and will the finish hold up in a high-traffic building?
20 gauge cold rolled steel with a tan powder coat. The powder coat gives corrosion resistance on the exposed door edge, and the steel gauge is what carries the fire performance in schools, hospitals, warehouses and multi-tenant residential where the edge takes cart and door-stop abuse.
12) What finish does the NGP 542 astragal come in?
Tan is the only finish offered on the 542, applied as a powder coat over 20 gauge cold rolled steel. If your building standard calls for a different color on the door edges, this one will not match without field finishing.
