Method of installing a low-profile threshold barrier

摘要

A low-profile barrier and method of installation is provided including a barrier door located in an opening defined by a frame having a pair of upwardly extending arms connected to a lower cross member. In an un-installed position, the lower cross member has a curvature biasing the upwardly extending arms outward. In an installed position, the curvature of the lower cross member is compressed to zero so that the lower cross member lays flat against a lower surface.

1. A method of installing a barrier having a frame with a pair of upwardly extending arms connected to a lower cross member having a curvature in an uninstalled configuration, and a barrier door connected to one of the upwardly extending arms, comprising:
positioning the barrier between opposing surfaces and above a lower surface; and extending adjustable fasteners connected to the frame outward to compress:
the upwardly extending arms inward; andthe curvature in the lower cross member flat such that the lower cross member lays substantially flush against the lower surface.
