  • Continuous handicap threshold assembly with dual dams and selectively positionable sidelight cap
    Patent number: 6289635
    Abstract: A continuous handicap threshold assembly for an entryway has an elongated extruded aluminum body with a threshold portion for extending continuously beneath a closed door and at least one fixed panel such as a sidelight or patio door. An exterior sill extends outwardly and slopes downwardly from said threshold portion and an interior sill extends inwardly from said threshold portion. The threshold portion projects a small distance upwardly from the sills to define exterior and interior dams to prevent water leakage. To accommodate the fixed panel, a plastic sidelight cap is adapted to be selectively positioned along the length of the body covering a section of the threshold portion to underlie and support the fixed panel of the entryway.
