Thresholds
Pemko Thermal Barrier Thresholds and Latching Panic Exit Saddle Thresholds provide a wealth of energy efficient benefits.
Thermal Barrier Thresholds include a rigid polypropylene key which separates two pieces of aluminum. This eliminates the transfer of hot and cold temperatures from one side of the threshold to the other, thus eliminating the need for additional cooling on hot days or condensation build up on cold/freezing days.
Latching Panic Exit Saddle Thresholds utilize an integrated stop to provide a consistent seal across the width of the opening. This helps to reduce, and potentially eliminate, the intrusion of the external environment on a buildings internal environment which helps to save on energy costs.

Perimeter and Meeting Edge Gaskets
Positively sealing the gaps around a door dramatically reduces the infiltration of fire, smoke, sound, light, moisture, and drafts. Pemko perimeter and meeting edge weatherstrip products have been tested for air and smoke leakage and are GreenGuard certified, helping to make your opening more energy efficient and more sustainable during the product's usage. Suitable for new or retrofit doors, these product lines provide an important, low-cost addition to any opening.
Door Shoes and Sweeps
Door Shoes and Sweeps are used to seal the gap between the door's bottom rail and the finished floor or threshold. The Pemko product line has a wide variety of options which include a selection of face mounted and bottom rail mounted profiles that allow for use in either new or retrofit construction.
