The Project Manager at Exxel Pacific reached out to SLIPNOT Metal Safety Flooring, looking for a slip resistant aluminum cover plate to use as horizontal waterproofing.

Many companies forget about weatherizing their entry doors and end up having to replace thresholds. Door thresholds take the hardest beating due to weather conditions and high foot traffic. If you let door thresholds go for an extended amount of time, it may do more damage to the underlying floor, which could cost more money and time to fix. It could also increase utility/energy bills.

SLIPNOT provided (19) 1/4” thick 5052 Grade 2 aluminum cover plates with varying dimensions for the application. Non slip aluminum plates were chosen because of lightweight and corrosion resistant properties.

The Project Engineer said “We used the SLIPNOT product at door threshold locations to cover our horizontal waterproofing.” The lightweight aluminum thresholds were easily installed quickly over the existing thresholds. The added slip resistant metal coating helped employees with their traction during rainy or snowy days.
