About Thresholds
Thresholds, sometimes referred to
as sills or transition strips are valuable accessories
that can be used when installing a Dreamsreen. For most
installations, no threshold is necessary as the bottom
track of the Dreamscreen ends up resting beside the
existing threshold or sill that is part of the door.
However, when that does not happen we use a threshold to
end up with a nice finish. |
The
bottom track looks like this.
It is 11/16" tall and all
are the same. |

No Threshold
With most installations,
no threshold is required. The bottom track
simply ends up juxtaposed or adjacent to the
existing sill. |
 |
Flat Threshold
Sometimes the track ends
up a little further away from the sill. Here
is when we use a "Flat" threshold to
bridge the span. |
 |
Step Threshold
Sometimes
there's no existing sill or there's a step
up that must be addressed. Here we use a
"Step" threshold to create a foundation
for the bottom track. Unlike the other
types, this threshold gets installed before
the Dreamscreen. |

Standard Threshold
When there's no
existing sill or the track ends up on
top of it, we use a "Standard"
threshold to reduce a 'kicking or
tripping' incident. |
 |
Front
Threshold
Sometimes space won't
allow us to use a standard threshold so
we have a specially designed "Front"
threshold which allows the track guide
to pass unimpeded. |
