Nova Doors Introduces Fiberglass Aluminum Door Sill

 

Nova Doors door sill

 

Nova Doors has developed a high-performance fiberglass-aluminum hybrid door sill that balances structural strength, energy efficiency and advanced water management, all within a compact 1 1/2-inch profile. This product is designed for both residential and multi-family applications. 

Product details

The sill features a fully supported anodized aluminum cap bonded to an injection-molded ABS base, delivering durability and rigidity under load. A fixed fiberglass sill riser creates a thermal break, reducing conductive heat loss at the threshold.

To prevent water intrusion, the sill includes a dual-layer protection system. Two pressure-equalized drip caps within the door sweep deflect 99% of water away from the interior. Any remaining moisture is sealed out by a large, high-compression bulb seal positioned behind the secondary fin.

The Nova hybrid sill is engineered for modern fiberglass door systems and supports higher design pressure ratings, making it ideal for energy-efficient new construction and replacement applications.
