Abstract
A width adaptable threshold and sill assembly has an elongated extruded aluminum body profiled to define an upwardly open channel from which a sloped sill extends outwardly to an edge. An edge plate projects further outwardly from beneath the edge of the sill to an extreme outside edge of the assembly. An extender plate is selectively attachable to the edge plate to extend the body in an outside direction to accommodate wider entryways for inswing doors. Alternatively, an extender nose is selectively attachable to the inside edge of the body to extend the body in an inside direction to accommodate wider entryways for outswing doors.
