Pemko 176D 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pemko 176 threshold meet ADA requirements at a barrier-free opening?
At 1/2 inch high, the 176 saddle threshold sits at the maximum change in level ADA allows without a bevel requirement beyond what the profile already provides, and the description states it meets ADA and ANSI/BHMA A117.1 accessibility standards. The 7 inch width gives a long, flat transition rather than a steep ramp, which is what matters for wheelchair and walker traffic in a corridor or entrance.
2) Can I use a Pemko 176 threshold on a fire rated door assembly?
Yes. The 176 saddle threshold is BHMA Certified, fire rated to UL 10C positive pressure, and cUL Listed 4L10, so it can go under a rated door assembly without breaking the listing. That is the spec an inspector will ask for on a stairwell, corridor, or tenant separation door.
3) What length Pemko 176 threshold do I need for a 3-0 door, and what about a pair?
Order by opening width, not door leaf. The 176 comes in 36, 48, 72, 84, and 96 inch lengths. A single 3-0 door in a standard frame usually wants the 36 inch cut to the frame opening; a pair of 3-0 doors needs 72 inches or more depending on frame throat. Aluminum cuts cleanly with a miter saw and carbide blade, so buying the next length up and trimming to fit is normal practice.
4) Is the Pemko 176 threshold a weatherproofing threshold for an exterior door?
No, and this is the most common mis-order on thresholds. The 176 is a flat saddle: a symmetrical plate with no rise, no vinyl seal insert, and no stop to seat a door bottom sweep against. It is for interior transitions and for openings where the level change is what you are solving. For an exterior opening that needs to shed water and block air, you want a thresholds with a raised sealing lip or a saddle paired with a door bottom sweep, not the 176 by itself.
5) Can a Pemko 176 threshold be installed in an offset condition or at an elevator sill?
Yes, and that is one of the reasons to pick the symmetrical profile. Because the 176 is identical on both sides of centerline, it can be set off-center under the door without the profile looking or performing wrong on one side. The description calls out elevator applications specifically. A directional threshold with a stop or a high side does not give you that freedom.
6) What fasteners come with the Pemko 176 threshold, and will they work in a concrete floor?
Standard fastening is #10 x 1-1/2 inch wood screws, which suit a wood subfloor. Concrete or a filled slab needs an anchor system instead, and the description notes alternative fastener options are available for other substrates. Plan your anchors around what the floor actually is before the threshold goes down, since you are drilling through 7 inches of aluminum bearing surface.
7) Can I get a Pemko 176 threshold long enough for an oversized or double-egress opening?
The 176 profile runs to 185 inches maximum as a series, and stock lengths go up to 96 inches. For an opening wider than a single stock length, order the length that covers the opening rather than butting two pieces at the traffic path, since a seam under the door swing is where a threshold starts to lift.
8) What finishes does the Pemko 176 flat saddle threshold come in?
Two: mill finish aluminum and dark bronze anodized aluminum. Both are offered in every length, 36 through 96 inches. Mill finish is the plain silver aluminum most commercial jobs default to; dark bronze anodized is the one to spec when you are matching bronze door hardware or a dark frame across a building's openings.
9) Is the Pemko 176 threshold heavy enough for high traffic commercial openings?
The 176 is an aluminum extrusion rated commercial, tested to ANSI/BHMA A156.21 for thresholds, and its 7 inch bearing width spreads foot and cart traffic over a wide footprint rather than a narrow strip. That combination is what carries it in office lobbies, schools, hospitals, and warehouse openings. For a very heavy abrasion condition, the description notes brass construction is an option in the series.
