DOOR ENTRYWAY SYSTEM

摘要

A door entryway system is disclosed. The door entryway system may have a door sweep capable of attachment to a bottom of a door panel and a threshold assembly. The threshold assembly may include a threshold substrate, an upwardly open sill channel on the substrate and a substantially rigid threshold cap biased upwardly, and vertically adjustable by rotating during interaction with the door sweep. The threshold cap and door sweep contact to form a sealing barrier when the door panel is in a closed position. The threshold assembly may also include a cap base formed separate from the threshold cap, the cap base at least partially positioned within the sill channel, the cap base supporting the threshold cap.

主权项

1. A threshold cap, comprising:
an upper cap comprising:
a substantially rigid upper wall, anda support wall extending from the upper wall; a rigid cap base configured to removably support the upper cap relative to a threshold substrate; and a biasing spring in contact with the upper wall to bias the upper cap toward a door panel disposed above the threshold, wherein the support wall connects the upper cap to the cap base, wherein the upper wall includes an upper surface having an interior portion and an exterior portion, one of the interior portion and the exterior portion moves vertically by a greater magnitude than the other of the interior portion and the exterior portion while the upper surface interacts with one of the door panel and an optional door sweep attached thereto, based on the attachment of the upper cap to the cap base and biasing forces provided by the biasing spring.
