Pemko 236D 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a carpet separator threshold actually used for, and do I need one at a door opening?
The Pemko 236 is a floor transition strip, not a door seal. It bridges the edge where carpet meets tile or another hard surface so the carpet edge is held down and the change in surface does not become a trip point. It is used in the opening or anywhere the flooring changes, and it does not do weatherstripping work. If you need to seal out water or air at an exterior door, this is the wrong part type.
2) Is the Pemko 236 threshold ADA compliant for a barrier-free opening?
Yes. The 236 is a barrier-free profile that meets ADA requirements and the ANSI/BHMA A117.1 accessibility standard, so it can be used on accessible routes in commercial buildings without creating a level barrier.
3) Can I use this threshold at a fire-rated door opening?
Yes. The 236 carries UL 10C positive pressure fire rating along with a UL 4L10 listing, which is what a fire door assembly inspection looks for at the sill. It is also certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.21 for thresholds.
4) How wide is the Pemko 236 threshold, and will 1-3/4 inches cover my carpet edge?
The 236 is 1-3/4 inches wide overall. That is a narrow separator profile meant to sit over the seam where carpet butts hard flooring, so it covers the carpet edge and the tack strip line, not a wide sill pan. If you are covering a wider gap or a raised subfloor step, you need a heavier saddle-type threshold instead.
5) What lengths does the Pemko 236 threshold come in, and can I get one cut for a double door?
Stock lengths are 36, 72, and 84 inches in both finishes. Beyond that, the 236 profile is produced from 24 inches minimum up to 185 inches maximum, so a pair of doors or a wide storefront opening can be covered in one piece rather than seaming two lengths together. A 36 inch piece covers a standard single 3-0 door.
6) What finishes is the Pemko 236 available in, and which one should I use in a public corridor?
Two: mill finish aluminum and dark bronze anodized aluminum. Mill is the raw silver aluminum look and is the usual choice where it will not be noticed or where existing hardware is aluminum. Dark bronze anodized is the one to pick when the opening has dark bronze door frames or hardware, and the anodized coating gives it a harder wearing surface in a high-traffic corridor.
7) Does the Pemko 236 threshold come with screws or anchors?
Order the fasteners separately. The 236 is supplied as the extruded aluminum profile itself, and the anchor you need depends on what you are fastening into, wood subfloor screws versus masonry anchors for a concrete slab. Plan on drilling and countersinking through the threshold on site to suit the floor.
8) Will this threshold hold up in a hospital or school corridor with cart traffic?
The 236 is an aluminum alloy extrusion rated for commercial use, and Pemko lists it for healthcare, education, office, retail, warehouse, multi-tenant residential and government buildings. Aluminum resists corrosion and takes rolling cart and wheelchair traffic. For property managers standardizing a facility, one profile in one finish across all carpet-to-tile transitions is the usual approach.
9) Can I cut the Pemko 236 threshold down on site to fit my opening?
Yes. It is an aluminum alloy extrusion with a constant 1-3/4 inch wide profile, so a miter saw with a non-ferrous blade cuts it cleanly to the opening width. Buying a 72 or 84 inch length and cutting two shorter openings from it is common practice.
