Pemko 1842AS 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Pemko 1842 a complete threshold, or do I still need a saddle under it?
The 1842 is a stop strip, not a threshold. It is an aluminum extrusion measuring 3/4 by 1/4 inches that fastens onto a standard flat top saddle threshold to form the stop and seal the door closes against, so the saddle itself has to already be in the opening or be ordered separately. That is the point of the part: it lets you build a bumper threshold configuration on a flat saddle you already have rather than pulling the saddle out and replacing it with a one piece bumper unit.
2) Will the Pemko 1842 stop strip work on the flat saddle threshold already in my door opening?
Flat top saddles are exactly what the 1842 is cut for. The strip mounts to the top face of the saddle, and the assembly is dimensioned to leave 1/8 inch of clearance between the bottom of the door and the top of the threshold. Measure that gap before ordering: if the door bottom or an existing sweep is riding closer than 1/8 inch over the saddle, the door will bind on the strip once it is fastened down. A saddle with a ramped or crowned top rather than a flat top is not the right base for it.
3) Can I add a Pemko 1842 stop strip and still keep the opening barrier free for accessibility?
Only over a 1/4 inch saddle. Pemko calls the 1842 a compliant barrier free configuration when it is used with a 1/4 inch saddle and only that height. Put the same strip on a taller saddle and you no longer have the configuration Pemko describes as barrier free, so on an accessible route the saddle height under it is the number that decides the job, not the strip.
4) What is the difference between the Pemko 1842S, 1842PK, and 1842V seal inserts?
Same aluminum strip, three seal materials. S is silicone, offered for chemical resistance. PK is PemkoPrene, a rubber like insert chosen for flexibility. V is Eco-V, the GREENGUARD Gold certified option. All three carry the identical 3/4 by 1/4 inch profile and all three are made in 36, 42, 48 and 84 inch lengths, so picking an insert does not limit what length you can get. Standardize on one material across a building if you want the openings to behave the same way as the seals age.
5) What length Pemko 1842 do I order for a 36 inch door, and what covers a pair of doors?
Lengths run 36, 42, 48 and 84 inches. Match the strip to the width of the opening, not to the door leaf alone: a single 36 inch leaf takes the 36 inch strip, wider single openings take the 42 or 48, and the 84 inch length is the one that spans a pair, since two 36 inch leaves make a 72 inch opening. The 1842 profile itself is produced in lengths from 24 inches up to 185 inches for long storefront and multi leaf runs.
6) Does the Pemko 1842 come predrilled, and are the screws included?
It ships predrilled with #10-24 Phillips flat head machine screws of the correct length, so there is no separate fastener line to add for the strip itself. Note the fastener type: machine screws thread into tapped holes in the aluminum saddle below, which is a different install from a sweep or shoe you drive into wood or shoot into concrete. Have a tap on the truck if the saddle under it is not already prepped.
7) Is the Pemko 1842 stop strip in dark bronze or a painted finish to match my threshold?
Mill finish aluminum is the only finish, and that holds across every length and all three insert materials. On an opening with a dark bronze or anodized saddle the strip will read as bare aluminum against it, so if the finish match matters visually, plan around that before it goes down at the sill.
8) Is the Pemko 1842 a door stop that keeps a door from hitting the wall?
No, and it is worth clearing up before ordering. The 1842 is a stop strip at the sill: it screws to the saddle threshold and forms the raised stop the door closes against, with a seal insert that closes the gap at the bottom of the door. It does nothing to control how far the door swings open. For that you need a wall or floor mounted door stop, which is a separate piece of hardware.
9) Which Pemko 1842 insert do I order for a project with low emitting material requirements?
The 1842V, with the Eco-V insert, is the one carrying GREENGUARD Gold certification among the three seal materials offered on the strip. It is available in the same 36, 42, 48 and 84 inch lengths as the silicone and PemkoPrene versions, so specifying it costs you nothing in sizing on a school, healthcare, or office fit out.
