KILARGO IS4078SI THRESHOLD RAMP WITH COMPRESSION BULB - AVAILABLE IN VARIOUS SIZES
KILARGO IS4078SI THRESHOLD RAMP WITH COMPRESSION BULB - AVAILABLE IN VARIOUS SIZES
The Kilargo IS4078si is a heavy-duty threshold ramp with an integral silicone compression bulb for buildings where wheelchairs and trolleys are used, or to compensate for uneven floors at a doorway. Its rate of incline complies with the ‘access for people with disability’ requirements, and PVC bedding pads eliminate vibration, noise and moisture beneath the ramp.
Key Features
What It's Used For
Use the IS4078si where floor levels change at a doorway or a step edge would obstruct wheelchairs, walkers, beds or trolleys – hospitals, aged care, hotels, shops and offices. It converts the level change into a compliant, gradual ramp.
The integral compression bulb also seals against the door bottom as it closes, reducing the need for a separate door seal in many details.

Compliance & What It Means
Fire and smoke approvals apply to tested, proprietary door assemblies. Always confirm suitability for your specific door type and required rating with your fire door manufacturer or building certifier.
Is the IS4078si wheelchair friendly / disability compliant?
Yes - its low profile keeps the threshold within the limits of AS 1428.1 (Design for Access and Mobility) and BCA/NCC clauses D2.15 & D3.3, so it can be used on accessible paths of travel without creating a barrier for wheelchairs or a trip hazard.
Can two ramps make a double-sided threshold?
Yes - these extrusions can be positioned back-to-back to create a two-way threshold ramp, giving a compliant transition from both sides of the doorway.
How is the threshold plate fixed down?
Stainless steel fixing screws and plugs are supplied. Alternatively, most Kilargo thresholds can be bedded in builder's adhesive for a concealed fixing. PVC bedding pads (where supplied) go underneath to eliminate vibration, noise and moisture ingress beneath the plate.
What lengths does the IS4078si come in?
Standard lengths are 1000mm and 2250mm, and it can be ordered in 250mm increments from 1000mm to 5000mm. Plates can also be cut down on site for an exact doorway fit.
What is the handling time for this item?
This is a non-stocked, specialty architectural item ordered directly from the Kilargo factory. Allow a standard handling time of 5–8 business days after cleared payment before dispatch. If your project needs express turnaround, call Prime Hardware on 1800 329 028 to confirm current factory lead times.
I'm not sure this is the right seal for my door — can I get help?
Yes. Door sealing depends on your door type, the gap sizes and what you need to seal against (fire, smoke, sound, weather or drafts). Call Prime Hardware on 1800 329 028 with your door details and gap measurements and we'll confirm the right Kilargo seal, size and finish before you order.
