KILARGO IS8020SI FULLY MORTISED SEAL (1220MM CUTS BACK TO 1070MM)
KILARGO IS8020SI FULLY MORTISED SEAL (1220MM CUTS BACK TO 1070MM)
The Kilargo IS8020si is a heavy-duty automatic door bottom seal that can be face-fixed, semi-rebated or fully mortised into single-action doors – one seal, three mounting options. The spring-loaded mechanism drops the silicone gasket to the floor as the door closes, sealing gaps of 3–15 mm against fire, smoke, sound, draughts and dust.
Key Features
What It's Used For
The IS8020si is specified for heavy-traffic fire, smoke and acoustic doors – hospital corridors, school classrooms, hotel rooms, theatres and commercial entries – wherever a robust, self-operating under-door seal must survive constant use.
Its three mounting styles make it equally suited to new doors (fully mortised for a concealed finish) and retrofit upgrades (face-fixed with the door still hung). Combine with Kilargo perimeter seals for a complete certified doorset.

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.
How does the IS8020si automatic door bottom seal work?
A spring-loaded mechanism inside the seal lifts the silicone gasket clear of the floor the moment the door opens, so there is no drag or floor wear. As the door closes, an adjustable strike button presses against the door jamb and automatically drops the gasket down onto the floor, sealing the gap under the door.
Which mounting method should I choose for the IS8020si?
Fully mortised gives a completely concealed finish and suits new doors that can be machined (54mm deep x 22mm wide groove). Face-fixed is the retrofit option - it screws straight onto the door face with a cover plate concealing the screws. Semi-rebated is the middle ground, recessing the seal into a stepped rebate on one side. All three use the same seal.
Is the IS8020si fire and smoke rated?
Yes. It is fire tested to AS 1530.4 in accordance with AS 1905.1 on proprietary fire door assemblies, holds medium-temperature smoke leakage approvals to AS 1530.7 (AS 6905) and conforms with BCA Specification C3.4 smoke sealing requirements. Always confirm the approval matches your specific door type with your fire door manufacturer or certifier.
Can the IS8020si be cut down to fit my door width?
Yes. Each standard length can be cut back on site to an exact dimension: 1070mm cuts to 920mm, 1220mm to 1070mm and special-order 1500mm to 1220mm (920mm cuts to 610mm). Order the standard length that your door width falls within, then trim to suit.
What is the antimicrobial (AM) option?
The IS8020si can be ordered with an antimicrobial silicone gasket. The silicone is compounded with an additive that inhibits bacteria and mould growth on the gasket surface - the version specified for hospitals, aged care, laboratories and food-preparation areas. Select the Anti-Microbial option when ordering.

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.
