NGP 897VDKB-36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the NGP 897V threshold fit a standard 36 inch commercial door opening?
The 897V comes cut to 36 inch and 48 inch lengths, so a standard 36 inch door leaf is a direct fit at the 36 inch length. The 48 inch length covers wider openings or gives you material to cut down. Profile is 4 inches across the floor by 1 inch tall, so you need 4 inches of clear floor depth under the door and the door bottom has to clear a 1 inch rise.
2) Is a bumper seal threshold the right type, or do I need a saddle threshold or a sweep?
A bumper seal threshold like the 897V is for a door that closes against the raised stop on the threshold, the vinyl bumper takes the door bottom and seals the gap. Use it where you want the seal built into the threshold instead of hung on the door. A plain saddle threshold has no bumper and needs a separate door bottom or sweep to close the gap. A sweep alone rides on whatever floor is there, which is why the 897V is the choice on an exterior opening where you also want a defined 4 inch aluminum landing over the floor joint.
3) Do I need to buy screws and anchors separately for the NGP 897V threshold?
Screws come with it. The 897V ships with #10 x 1-1/2 inch flat head zinc plated wood screws. Those suit a wood substrate. If you're setting it on concrete or a slab, you'll want your own masonry anchors and matching flat head fasteners instead, since the supplied wood screws won't hold in concrete.
4) Do I still have to caulk under an NGP 897V bumper seal threshold?
No. The 897V carries a black vinyl foot seal along the base that seals the threshold to the floor in place of a caulk bead. That is the point of the V in the model designation, and it means no bead to re-cut and re-lay when the threshold is pulled for a door replacement.
5) What finishes does the NGP 897V bumper seal threshold come in?
Two: mill aluminum (the standard clear mill finish) and dark bronze. Both are offered in 36 inch and 48 inch lengths. Mill is the usual choice on service and back-of-house openings; dark bronze is what matches bronze-anodized storefront and entrance frames. NGP also offers an abrasive SIA slip-resistant finish option on this threshold where the opening needs traction.
6) Is the NGP 897V threshold strong enough for a high-traffic entrance?
It's extruded from 6063 aluminum with a T5 temper and runs .166 inch typical wall thickness, which is the alloy and temper standard for commercial entrance thresholds, and it's rated commercial rather than residential. That wall section is what lets it take carts, hand trucks and daily foot traffic at an office, school, hospital or warehouse entry without deflecting.
7) Can I cut an NGP 897V threshold down to fit my opening?
Yes. It's a 6063-T5 aluminum extrusion with a uniform 4 inch by 1 inch profile the full length, so ordering the 48 inch and cutting to your opening is normal practice. Cut with a miter saw and a non-ferrous blade, then trim the vinyl foot seal flush.
8) Will an NGP 897V threshold work on an exterior door in a wet or coastal location?
6063 aluminum with T5 temper is the corrosion-resistant extrusion alloy used for exterior architectural work, and the vinyl foot seal keeps water from tracking under the plate at the floor joint. Mill aluminum is bare metal and will grey over time outdoors; dark bronze is the finish to specify if appearance matters on a visible entrance.
