The sill deck is removably attached to the substrate and removably attached to the dam. The dam has a vertical wall, and a lower portion of the vertical wall engages the substrate.
1. A doorsill, comprising:
a substrate;
a dam removably attached to the substrate, the dam consisting of:
a vertical wall;
a first horizontal wall extending from the vertical wall and defining a male portion;
a second horizontal wall extending from the vertical wall; and
a lip extending substantially horizontally from a top of the vertical wall,
wherein the first and second horizontal walls extend from the vertical wall in opposite directions,
wherein the vertical wall is configured to attach the dam to the substrate, and
wherein the vertical wall, first horizontal wall, second horizontal wall, and lip are integrally formed; and
a sill deck removably attached to the substrate and the dam,
wherein, a detachable joint between the dam and the sill deck comprises:
a female portion is provided on the sill deck; and
a seal is disposed between the male portion and the female portion.
2. The doorsill of claim 1 , wherein the seal at least partially contacts an end of the male portion.
3. The doorsill of claim 1 , further comprising a nosing cover, wherein the nosing cover is not in direct contact with the dam.
4. The doorsill of claim 1 , wherein the substrate comprises a top surface, the top surface having a slit formed therein,
wherein the vertical wall of the dam extends upwardly from the top surface of the substrate,
wherein a lower distal end of the vertical wall resides within the slit.
5. The doorsill of claim 1 , wherein the second horizontal wall extends from a position along the vertical wall that is lower than the first horizontal wall,
wherein the second horizontal wall is configured to be disposed along a top surface of the substrate.
