What is typical overhang of wood threshold over riser?

Apr 05, 2012 1 Replies

I'm in the process of replacing a wood threshold and was wondering if there was a standard overhang measurement for over the riser board?



1/2" looks about right but I didn't know.

Any know the specs? Thanks.


For an uncarpeted staircase, the tread overhang is typically the same as the thickness of the tread.

Seems like it should be the same for a threshold.

What is the overhang of the threshold you are replacing...and why wouldn't you duplicate it?
