Threshold with Flexible Joint

Threshold Flexes or Expands for a Variety of Uses

The Pemko 573x5_FG threshold is a commercial threshold with a flexible joint. The flexible joint allows the threshold to flex as much as 20 degrees up or down, or to expand up to an additional 1/4". Ideal applications include uneven floor surfaces or building components that expand and contract, or move slightly, such as a floating ramp or an expansion joint.

The flexible joint is made from a thermoplastic elastomer that adds an additional benefit as a thermal barrier. A thermal barrier threshold doesn't allow heat to be transferred from one side of the threshold to the other, which would normally cause condensation.

Features Benefits
Flexible joint flexes the threshold 20° up or down Suitable for uneven or floors that expand and
contract slightly
Thermally broken threshold Prevents temperature transfer and condensation
Low profile for ADA compliance Enables easy access to facility
