## Overview

The M-D Building Products 68387 Fluted Saddle Threshold is a 36-inch, 1/4-inch thick aluminum threshold designed for commercial use. UL-fire rated and ADA-approved, it offers durable protection against drafts, moisture, and fire while ensuring wheelchair accessibility. Its fluted, low-profile design provides a secure, energy-efficient seal ideal for high-traffic, fire-rated doorways.

## Description

M-D saddle threshold, fluted, series: Ultra, 1/4 in width, 36 in length, 5 in height, fasteners: screws, aluminum, mill, UL listed, ADA approved, used to seal gaps at the bottom of doors. This heavy duty aluminum threshold is designed for use in commercial applications. The low profile non-skid design is recommended and approved for wheelchair access.

Review: I installed this on a garage man-door, on uneven concrete which was causing problems with draft sealing. I used a general purpose adhesive to fill in the irregularities and screwed it down. It is strong enough to resist warping and now provides a level surface enabling me to finally install a door sweep to seal drafts.
Review: Exactly as advertised. Worked perfectly for a threshold in a commercial building.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be cut down to to length...31 3/4?**
A: Yes. You just need to make sure that you take 5 1/4 inches off in 2 5/8" sections off of both ends. If that puts you too close to the predrilled and counter sun holes you may have to take the 5 1/4 inch section at one end and drill and countersink another hole.

**Q: are they concrete screws?**
A: Definitely not concrete screws.

**Q: Is this trimable?**
A: Yes, it’s aluminum. I used a hacksaw to trim

**Q: I have an old house and I’m considering this for an exterior door. Does it seal tightly, or do i need to put a vinyl strip on the bottom of the door?**
A: This product provides an excellent base to seal with. In other words it provides no seal. Additional seal strip on the door is required.
