Pemko 282D 36 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a Pemko 282 threshold elevator actually do, and when do I need one?
The 282 is an aluminum elevator strip that raises a threshold by 1/4 inch. You use it when the door bottom sweep or seal isn't making contact because the threshold sits too low relative to the door, or when a floor covering has changed the height relationship. The sloped body carries foot traffic across the added height instead of leaving a square lip, and it widens the effective threshold footprint by about 0.75 inch per side. It is 1 inch wide and 1/4 inch high.
2) Will the Pemko 282 elevator work with my existing threshold, or only certain ones?
It's made to go with Pemko Husky Folding 100 Series thresholds. That pairing is what the 282 is designed around, and when it's used with a compatible threshold no separate fasteners are needed. If you're working with a threshold from another series or another maker, the compatibility isn't something we can confirm for you.
3) Is the Pemko 282 threshold elevator fire rated?
Fire rated, with UL 10C positive pressure and UL 4L10 listings. That covers it for openings where the threshold assembly has to hold a rating, which is the usual sticking point on healthcare, education, and multi-family corridor doors.
4) What lengths does the Pemko 282 threshold elevator come in, and can I get a custom length?
Stock lengths are 36, 72, and 80 inches, in either mill finish aluminum or dark bronze anodized. Beyond those, the 282 is made to order anywhere from 2 inches up to 185 inches, so odd openings, offset conditions, and short filler runs are all covered. Pairs of doors and wide openings that exceed 80 inches are handled with a custom cut rather than by butting two stock pieces.
5) Do I need screws or anchors to install a Pemko 282 elevator?
No fasteners are required when the elevator is installed with a compatible threshold. That keeps you off the floor slab, which matters on post-tension decks and finished terrazzo where nobody wants to drill more holes than the job needs.
6) My door bottom is short of the threshold by about a quarter inch. Should I use an elevator or a taller threshold?
For a 1/4 inch gap the elevator is the smaller job. It raises the existing threshold by exactly 1/4 inch without pulling the threshold out, redrilling the floor, or disturbing the frame anchors. Replacing the threshold makes more sense when the gap is well past a quarter inch, when the existing threshold is damaged, or when you need a different profile altogether. If you only need to close a quarter inch, the 282 does it in place.
7) Is a threshold elevator a trip hazard for a building with public traffic?
The 282 adds a quarter inch of height, and the body is sloped rather than square so the transition is ramped on each side, adding roughly 0.75 inch of width per side to spread that rise out. Aluminum construction is what holds up under entry traffic in offices, retail, schools, and healthcare corridors. Where an opening is governed by a specific accessibility threshold-height limit, check that limit against your total assembly height, since the elevator adds to whatever the threshold already stands at.
8) How do I specify a Pemko 282 elevator for an opening that isn't a standard door width?
Give the length you need. The 282 is cut anywhere from 2 inches to 185 inches, so you order to the measured opening rather than to a nominal door size. Then pick the finish, mill or dark bronze anodized. Height and width aren't options, they're fixed at 1/4 inch high and 1 inch wide, so those are the only two decisions on the order.
9) Which finishes does the Pemko 282 elevator come in, and will it match my existing threshold?
Two finishes: mill finish aluminum and dark bronze anodized aluminum. Mill finish is the plain silver aluminum that sits next to most standard Pemko thresholds; dark bronze anodized is the one to order if the existing threshold and door bottom are dark bronze, since the elevator sits right at eye level in the opening and a mismatch shows. Both finishes are offered in the 36, 72, and 80 inch lengths.
