NGP 97VB 84 SET – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the NGP 97VB astragal come as one piece or a pair for a double door?
The 97VB is sold as a set of two pieces, each 84 inches, so one order covers both leaves of a pair of doors at standard commercial door height. Mounting screws are included: #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws.
2) Should I use a vinyl astragal or a brush astragal on a pair of doors?
Vinyl, as on the NGP 97VB, gives a wiping contact seal against air and moisture and its PVC is flame resistant. A pile brush version tolerates more misalignment and drags less on doors that get heavy traffic. ZenSupply carries brush alternatives in the Pemko 300 Series adjustable astragal with self-adjusting pile brush and the Pemko 369 split astragal with pile brush insert, a 13/32 by 11/32 inch aluminum fire-rated profile. Pick brush where the leaves are out of plane, vinyl where you need the tighter seal.
3) Will the Trimco 5001 or 5002 lock astragal do the same job as the NGP 97VB?
No - they solve different problems. The Trimco 5001 is a stainless steel lock astragal for use with mortise or cylindrical locks, and the Trimco 5002 is a stainless steel lock astragal measuring 1-9/16 inches by 6 inches for use with cylindrical locks. Those are short latch-guard style pieces that cover the gap at the lock, not full-height seals. The NGP 97VB is an 84 inch surface mounted seal set supplied as two pieces with a PVC vinyl sealing element to close the meeting stile gap over the full door height. If you need weather and light sealing rather than latch protection, the 97VB is the right family.
4) Is the NGP 97VB fire rated, and what do I use on a fire-rated pair?
The NGP 97VB is described as having a flame-resistant PVC vinyl formulation for commercial use, but for an opening where a fire-rated astragal is called out on the drawing, the Pemko 369 split astragal seal is designated fire-rated in a 13/32 inch by 11/32 inch aluminum profile with a pile brush insert. On a labeled pair, match the astragal to what the door and frame label and the hardware schedule permit.
5) What is a close equivalent to the NGP 97VB astragal seal set if I need an aluminum astragal with a vinyl insert for a pair of doors?
The Cal-Royal EAST-501 is an aluminum T-astragal with a vinyl insert made for double doors, which is the same basic construction concept as the NGP 97VB: an aluminum extrusion carrying a flexible vinyl sealing element. The 97VB set uses aluminum alloy 6063 T5 temper with thermoplastic PVC seal elements, surface mounts with slotted screw holes, and ships as two pieces with #6 x 3/4 inch stainless steel sheet metal screws. The EAST-501 is a T-shaped profile, so confirm the meeting stile clearance on your pair before swapping profiles.
6) Can the NGP 97VB astragal be adjusted after mounting to close up a gap?
Yes. The aluminum retainer has slotted screw holes, so you can shift the seal in or out to dial in contact with the opposite leaf before final tightening. That matters on doors that have settled or racked, where a fixed-hole astragal would leave you either binding or leaking.
7) Is the 97VB astragal surface mounted or does the door need to be prepped?
Surface mounted. It screws to the face of the door with the supplied #6 x 3/4 inch stainless SMS, so there is no mortising or routing involved and it can go on existing hung doors without pulling them.
8) Will a vinyl astragal hold up in an unheated warehouse or a hot southern exposure?
The 97VB's PVC seal is rated for service from 0 F to 140 F. That covers an unconditioned warehouse or a west-facing exterior door in most of the country, but a freezer vestibule or any opening that sees sustained sub-zero temperatures is outside the range.
9) Is there an alternative to the NGP 97VB if I need a T-astragal profile for double doors?
A T-astragal sits in the gap between the leaves rather than wiping across the face. The Cal-Royal EAST-501 aluminum T-astragal with vinyl insert is the option for that geometry on a pair of doors. The 97VB is the surface mounted style, screwed to the door face with slotted holes for adjustment.
10) My double doors have uneven meeting stiles and the gap varies top to bottom - is the NGP 97VB the right choice?
Where the gap varies, an adjustable astragal is usually the better answer: the Pemko 300 Series is an adjustable astragal with a self-adjusting pile brush for double doors. The NGP 97VB does offer slotted screw holes so the extrusion can be positioned and aligned during installation, which handles modest variation, and it seals with a flexible PVC element. For a badly out of true pair, the self-adjusting brush design will track the gap without refitting.
11) I only need to cover the gap at the lock on a pair of doors, not seal the whole height - what is smaller than the NGP 97VB?
The Trimco 5002 is a stainless steel lock astragal at 1-9/16 inches by 6 inches for use with cylindrical locks, and the Trimco 5001 stainless steel lock astragal is made for use with either mortise or cylindrical locks. Both are short pieces at the lock location. The NGP 97VB is a full-height 84 inch set of two pieces intended to seal the entire meeting stile, so it is more material and more fasteners than a lock-only application needs.
12) Will the gold anodized finish on the NGP 97VB corrode on an exterior door?
The extrusion is 6063 aluminum in T5 temper with an anodized gold finish, and anodizing adds corrosion resistance on top of aluminum's own. The fasteners supplied are stainless steel, so you are not putting a rusting screw into an aluminum retainer.
13) What finish does the NGP 97VB astragal set come in?
Gold anodized aluminum is the finish offered on the 97VB 84 inch set. If your other openings are done in clear or dark bronze anodized, the gold will not match, so specify accordingly when you are standardizing a building.
14) Which astragal holds up better in a wet or wash-down area, the NGP 97VB or the stainless Trimco pieces?
They are built for different exposures. The NGP 97VB uses aluminum alloy 6063 T5 temper with a gold anodized finish for corrosion protection, a moisture-resistant PVC vinyl seal, and stainless steel #6 x 3/4 inch mounting screws. The Trimco 5001 and 5002 lock astragals are stainless steel bodies, but they cover only the lock area rather than the full door height. For a full-height seal against moisture the 97VB is the applicable product; for a stainless surface at the lock, the Trimco pieces are the stainless option.
15) Does the 97VB vinyl use a plasticizer I have to worry about for a green building spec?
The PVC is formulated with a bio-based plasticizer, which is the point worth citing on a sustainability submittal. The retainer itself is 6063 T5 aluminum.
