Floora, did you know that metal door thresholds are the unsung guardians of your entryways? They’re not just about appearances—they play a vital role in protecting your doors and ensuring energy efficiency. Think of them as the bridge between the inside and outside, keeping your spaces secure and comfortable.

When choosing a door threshold, consider these factors:

• Material Matters: Aluminum thresholds from trusted brands like National Guard Products are lightweight yet durable, ideal for most standard applications. For high-traffic areas, explore their heavy-duty bronze or stainless steel options.
• Seal the Deal: Many thresholds come with built-in seals or gaskets to keep drafts, water, and pests out. Perfect for enhancing energy efficiency and protecting your interiors.
• Seal the Deal: Many thresholds come with built-in seals or gaskets to keep drafts, water, and pests out. Perfect for enhancing energy efficiency and protecting your interiors.
• ADA Compliance: Look for low-profile or beveled thresholds that meet ADA standards, ensuring smooth transitions and accessibility for everyone.
• Finishes and Styles: Choose a threshold finish from National Guard Products that complements your doors and frames, whether you prefer a sleek modern look or a timeless classic design.

Buying Tip: Assess the height and type of your doors when selecting a threshold. For exterior doors, weather-resistant options are a must to stand up to the elements.

Floora Says:

Thank you, Wally! National Guard Products’ thresholds are definitely a functional addition to your business. Installing them is easier than you think—let me walk you through it:

• Measure Twice: Start by measuring the door’s width and clearance. This ensures the threshold fits snugly and effectively seals the gap.
• Prep the Area: Clean the door frame and floor surface thoroughly before installation to ensure proper adhesion and alignment.
• Secure Installation: Use screws or adhesive, depending on your threshold type. Many models from National Guard Products are pre-drilled for easy mounting.
• Weatherproofing: Add caulk along the edges for a watertight seal, particularly for exterior doors exposed to the elements.
• Regular Maintenance: Wipe down your thresholds regularly to prevent dirt buildup and ensure the seals stay effective over time.

Buying Tip: For commercial settings or heavy-use doors, prioritize thresholds with non-slip surfaces and reinforced construction for durability and safety.
