    Seals: Available with a PemkoPrene™, Sponge EPDM and Sponge Silicone insert.

    • EPDM is comparable to Sponge Neoprene, though has significantly better performance and is more environmentally friendly! It has great sound control properties and is resistant to solvents.
    • PemkoPrene™ has a multi-point contact design and is great for uneven surfaces such as a tiled floor or carpet. Due to the way PemkoPrene™ is manufactured, it is not as firm as sponge silicone and allows for more leniencies.
    • Sponge Silicone has great overall performance, except in the area of soundproofing. All three options remain effective in a wide range of temperatures and can be used on external doors. The seal lowers to fill gaps up to 3/4".

    Mounting: This automatic door bottom can be surface mounted or semi-mortised applied to the face of the door.

    Installation: Installation instructions, end plates and screws provided. Screws are colored to coordinate with casing.

    Please note, images are for illustrative purposes only. They are not actual photos. Therefore, actual colors may vary slightly and size may be enlarged to show detail. See product specs for exact measurements.

    How it Works

    The high quality automatic mechanism consists of an aluminum case which surrounds a moveable drop-bar seal. The drop-bar seal is actuated by a plunger which contacts the door jamb as the door is closing, forcing the drop-bar seal down against the floor / threshold. The plunger requires low "Feather Touch" closing force to actuate the drop-bar seal. The plunger causes the seal to always actuate on the hinge side first, which prevents the seal from skidding along the floor/threshold while the door is being closed. Door hang-up will not occur!

    Would work good in the right setting.

    Comments about Pemko #4131 Automatic Door Bottom, Aluminum with Choice of Seals, Narrow Casing, .75" Drop

    I was unaware when I made the purchase, that this will not extend to it's full potential unless it makes contact with somerthing, so it didn't really work for me.

    Shouldn't be this complicated

    Comments about Pemko #4131 Automatic Door Bottom, Aluminum with Choice of Seals, Narrow Casing, .75" Drop

    Hard to install so that it works properly. Very finicky, drops fine sometimes, at an angle other times. Endplates attach with tiny watchmaker screws very difficult to install.

    Worked for this application

    Comments about Pemko #4131 Automatic Door Bottom, Aluminum with Choice of Seals, Narrow Casing, .75" Drop

    The door gasket was expensive, but I rabbeted it flush into the bottom of a customer's 42" wide wood exterior door. That meant I could run the jamb gaskets down over this door bottom, making a good seal around the entire perimeter of the door. The only downside is that it's not easy to get the drop to come down onto the threshold evenly, but after fussing with it for a while I was finally able to do so.

    I now know where to go for this odd item.

    Comments about Pemko #4131 Automatic Door Bottom, Aluminum with Choice of Seals, Narrow Casing, .75" Drop

    I have seen products like this automatic door bottom at various times in the past, but I never had a door that opened on an outdoor slanted floor before. I needed to seal out the outside air so I went on a web hunt and found your web site. It explained how it functioned and all the necessary dimensions available. I found one that would work for my door and ordered it. Then I waited just like a kid before Christmas. When it came I immediately began the install process. I was really surprised at how simple that turned out to be. It's Been a few weeks now with many door uses and has performed perfectly. I recommend this product to any diy person with simple tool skills. Thank you Trademark.

    My Pemko 4131 arrived with defective end plates

    Comments about Pemko #4131 Automatic Door Bottom, Aluminum with Choice of Seals, Narrow Casing, .75" Drop

    End plates that came with unit were drilled incorrectly and the unit is not useable with out them. Manufacturer would not send new end plates. Also if surface mounting on the outside of an inward opening door is required, the door must close right againest door stop for the plunger to be able to be depressed. If there is a gap between the door and door stop, say where the weather stripping is, the plunger will not be depressed.

    Great product

    Comments about Pemko #4131 Automatic Door Bottom, Aluminum with Choice of Seals, Narrow Casing, .75" Drop

    Finally, a door bottom seal that really works. I had installed an extra high threshold a year or so ago (bought somewhere else). We had a problem with freezing cold air coming in from the garage as the door bottom had been cut unevenly. In no time at all the rubber gasket flattened out. This automatic door bottom solves the problem. It won't get stepped on and it was easily adjusted to make a very good seal.
