Pemko 177AV 32 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pemko 177 threshold work with a surface vertical rod exit device?
That's exactly what the 177 saddle threshold is built around. It's made for surface-applied vertical rod exit devices, so the bottom rod latches into the threshold rather than into a separate floor strike, and the same saddle doubles as a door stop and bottom seal. If your exit device uses concealed vertical rods or is a rim device with no bottom rod, you don't need a latching saddle at all, a plain saddle or standard threshold will do the job.
2) How much clearance do I need under the door for a Pemko 177 saddle threshold?
The 177 saddle allows 5/8 inch door clearance, and the saddle itself stands 7/8 inch high with a 5 inch width across the opening. Measure your undercut before ordering: if the door bottom sits tighter than 5/8 inch above the finished floor, the door will drag on the saddle or bind on the gasket.
3) Is the Pemko 177 threshold fire rated and BHMA certified?
Fire rated and BHMA certified, which is why it turns up on rated openings in schools, hospitals and government buildings where the bottom of a panic-equipped door still has to meet code. It's a commercial-duty product, aluminum and brass base material, sound and air infiltration tested.
4) What lengths does the Pemko 177 latching panic threshold come in?
Stock lengths are 36, 48, 72 and 96 inches in mill finish aluminum. The 177 is also produced in lengths from a 24 inch minimum up to 185 inch maximum, so wide openings and pairs of doors are covered. For a pair, measure the full frame opening rather than one door leaf, and cut to fit on site.
5) What is the difference between the ThermoSeal, Eco-V and Pile Brush inserts on a Pemko 177 threshold?
Three gasket inserts are offered in the 177 saddle: ThermoSeal (T), Eco-V (V), and Pile Brush (P). All three seal the door bottom against sound, air infiltration, wind and debris. The insert code is part of what you specify when ordering, so decide it up front rather than assuming a default, and match the rest of your openings if you're standardizing a building.
6) Do fasteners come with the Pemko 177 saddle threshold?
Standard WS #10 x 1.5 inch wood screws ship with the 177, and other fastener options are available. Wood screws are the wrong anchor for a concrete or terrazzo sill, so if you're setting this on masonry plan on machine screws and shields as a separate line item.
7) Can a 5 inch wide saddle threshold be used on an exterior door opening?
Yes, and that's the usual place for it. The 5 inch width gives a broad bearing surface across the sill, and the aluminum and brass construction with a gasket insert handles wind-driven rain, air infiltration and debris at an exterior door. On an interior opening the 5 inch saddle is often more threshold than the job needs unless you're after the sound seal or the panic device needs the latching saddle.
8) What finish does the Pemko 177 threshold come in?
Mill finish aluminum, in every stocked length of the 177 saddle. That's the raw aluminum look, which is what most commercial specs call for at a threshold since it hides scuffing from foot traffic better than a plated finish.
