The Pemko 184 Series is a latching panic saddle threshold stop strip with a 5/8" wide by 3/8" high aluminum profile.

Two finishes are offered: Mill Finish Aluminum and Dark Bronze Anodized Aluminum.

  • Eco-V (184V): GREENGUARD Gold certified bio-based vinyl insert; contains no phthalates or heavy metals, with plasticizers from renewable carbon sources.

Construction and Installation

  • Pre-drilled and supplied with #10-24 Phillips flat head machine screws for secure mounting.
  • Profile dimensions: 5/8" wide x 3/8" high.

Pemko 184DT 72 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pemko 184 stop strip fit my existing flat top saddle threshold?
The 184 stop strip is made to mount on standard flat top saddle thresholds. It's a 5/8 inch wide by 3/8 inch high aluminum extrusion that sits on the flat face of the saddle, so what you need to confirm is that your saddle has a flat top landing at least 5/8 inch wide where the door contacts it. If your threshold is a ramped or crowned profile with no flat run, the strip has nothing to sit on.
2) What is the difference between the Pemko 184T, 184P and 184V inserts?
Three different sealing materials in the same aluminum stop profile. The 184T carries a ThermoSeal insert, which is GREENGUARD certified. The 184P uses a pile brush insert, a sweeping seal that tolerates a rougher or slightly uneven threshold surface. The 184V uses Eco-V, a bio-based material with no phthalates or heavy metals and plasticizers from renewable carbon sources, and it holds GREENGUARD Gold certification. If you're chasing indoor air quality credits on a school or healthcare job, the V is the one to specify.
3) Which insert should I pick for an exterior door that has to stop drafts and blowing rain?
ThermoSeal (184T) or Eco-V (184V) are the solid-seal options, and a solid seal is what closes off air, moisture and dust at the sill. Pile brush (184P) sweeps debris and cuts light and dust but a brush is a looser seal against weather. On an interior door where you mainly want to stop sound and light transfer, or where the threshold surface isn't perfectly true, the pile brush is the easier fit.
4) How much does a 184 stop strip raise the height of my threshold?
3/8 inch above whatever surface it's screwed to. That matters two ways: it adds to the total rise a wheelchair or cart crosses, so check the finished height of saddle plus strip against your accessibility requirements before you install; and it eats 3/8 inch of the gap under the door, so the door bottom has to clear the saddle by more than that or the door won't close over it.
5) What lengths does the Pemko 184 threshold stop strip come in?
Stocked at 36 inches and 72 inches, and both lengths are offered in either Mill Finish Aluminum or Dark Bronze Anodized with any of the three inserts. The 184 profile itself is made from 24 inches minimum up to 185 inches maximum for custom threshold runs. A 36 inch piece covers a standard single door; the 72 inch piece covers a pair or gives you material to cut down.
6) Do I need to buy screws to install a Pemko 184 stop strip?
No extra fasteners needed. The 184 ships predrilled with #10-24 Phillips flat head machine screws of the correct length included. You will need to drill and tap the saddle to match the predrilled holes if your threshold isn't already prepped.
7) Can I cut a 72 inch Pemko 184 stop strip down to fit a narrower opening?
Yes, the aluminum extrusion cuts down with a miter saw and a non-ferrous blade. The catch is the predrilled screw holes: once you cut, the remaining hole spacing may leave you short at one end, so lay the piece on the saddle and check hole positions before you commit to the cut. If you need a length between the two stocked sizes and want it factory drilled, the 184 profile is produced from 24 to 185 inches.
8) Will a Dark Bronze 184 stop strip match the anodized thresholds already in my building?
Two finishes are offered: Mill Finish Aluminum and Dark Bronze Anodized Aluminum, both in 36 and 72 inch. Dark Bronze Anodized is the standard commercial bronze anodize used across aluminum door and threshold hardware, so it lines up with dark bronze saddles and storefront trim. Mill finish is the plain unanodized aluminum, which matches clear/aluminum saddles. Anodized finishes vary slightly batch to batch, so on a visible entrance it's worth ordering the stop strip in the same finish family as the saddle underneath it.
9) I need GREENGUARD documentation for a LEED submittal on door seals. Which Pemko 184 do I specify?
Specify the 184V with the Eco-V insert. It carries GREENGUARD Gold certification, the higher of the two, and the material is bio-based with no phthalates or heavy metals and plasticizers sourced from renewable carbon. The 184T with ThermoSeal is GREENGUARD certified but not Gold. Both come in Mill Finish or Dark Bronze, 36 or 72 inch, so the finish and length decision is independent of the certification decision.
10) Is the Pemko 184 rated for commercial traffic, or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The 184 is an aluminum alloy extrusion built for office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. Aluminum gives it corrosion resistance for exterior openings, and the insert is the wear part, so on a high-traffic entrance you replace the seal rather than the whole strip.
