Most modern cars are equipped with removable metal or plastic sills, so repairing them is not particularly difficult. The whole repair of the Peugeot 307 thresholds is that the damaged part is removed and straightened on special equipment. Or it can be simply replaced with a new one, as is the case with disposable protective plastic thresholds.
It's another matter if the threshold is rigidly fixed to the car body or is the main part of its structure. In the presence of through holes, deep dents, torn off parts and other large damage, it is advisable to completely replace the affected area. It is simply cut out and welded onto the vacant space of the corresponding size structure. However, small rusted areas can simply be closed with neat steel patches, which are welded at the place of damage - this is how the simplest repair of car thresholds is carried out.

To eliminate dents in the thresholds of the car, several holes are made through which tools are inserted inside and the damaged area is straightened. It is not recommended to carry out such a repair of the thresholds of the car with your own hands - this is fraught with great complications. You can also weld a steel rod to the threshold, for which the dented part is pulled to its original state, after which the rod is cut off. But this method can only fix minor damage.

Anti-corrosion treatment after repair of car sills

There are two main ways to create corrosion protection after repairing vehicle sills. The first is the use of auto chemistry - special varnishes, mastics and impregnations. This is a simple, very effective, but not cheap way, since high-quality consumables are very expensive and you need a lot of them. And cheap ones are not always compatible with the materials from which the thresholds of foreign cars are made.
The second method is called electrochemical protection. When repairing thresholds with your own hands, it is extremely problematic to do it, so it is better to contact a special service. The essence of this protection is that a small direct current is supplied to the electrodes installed in the area of the thresholds, due to which they attract moisture to themselves. That is, instead of thresholds, electrodes rust, which after six months or a year of operation are replaced with new ones. It is cheap and simple, but the effectiveness of such protection on our roads is relative - the electrodes wear out very quickly.
Also, in a professional car service, you will be offered to save on repairing car sills and install protective plastic door sills. They are very cheap and easy to replace, but at the same time they are quite good at protecting steel parts from dirt and moisture.

We remind you that the repair of the Peugeot 307 threshold in the AutoMotoService club service (South-West Administrative District) is inexpensive, with the same quality.

Chef, a question for you and for the professional painters, - Right now, there are many suggestions for cold zinc. Which brand has been tested? 500r pay for outright crap reluctance.

The anti-gravel coating is peeling off. Over 30 centimeters. Further along the entire length without damage. The metal is visible in the photo. There is no rust.

restore the damaged area as the chief advises, and fill the threshold along the entire length with anti-gravel

It turns out we scrub the paint from the rest of the threshold, fill it completely with anti-gravel and paint it entirely. Do I understand correctly?

wrong. if you clean the metal and cover with anti-gravel, any damage to the anti-gravel from a stone, stick, sand and boots will guarantee a center of corrosion

In no case. I'm talking about the paint on the rest of the anti-gravel. In the damaged area, the metal is already clean)

you cover bare metal only in the damaged area (soil / zinc / etc.). it is not necessary to touch the intact one; the finishing coating with anti-gravel should be done along the entire length of the threshold. for the color of the pieces will be noticeable.

Directly over old paint on an undamaged surface?

Zinc plated muffler pipes and brake calipers and calipers. Complete crap! It rots faster than without zincarium treatment. I tried to galvanize a simple piece of iron, then tossed this piece into a saline solution. It seems that zincar protects, at least at the initial stage.
Antigravel is very hygroscopic, so it must be painted, otherwise this rubbish will absorb all the salt.
The best option with thresholds, I think, is to clean it carefully without fanaticism with sandpaper, then epoxy primer and paint on top. I have tried applying acrylic paint directly over epoxy. Everything holds up perfectly and not a hint of flaking. Epoxy is a theme! Even if you grind a layer of native zinc, you will not find better protection anyway.

You previously wrote about epoxy, but what kind of zinc? “Liquid zinc plating” (on the drive, one spoke that modern zinc paints are superior in simplicity and quality to zinc electrolysis), “Zinc paint”? They are heaps (to me "windows" pop up), who used them in practice?

Repair of the Peugeot 307 thresholds should be done when damage, distortions, dents and corrosion, in advanced cases, holes become noticeable visually. Basically, the thresholds are made of steel, aluminum, alloyed with chrome, therefore, the damage to them is the same as on other similar elements. The service life of the thresholds is up to 7 years and even more, of course, if you did not have an accident, did not touch the threshold during inaccurate parking and did not damage it with a jack during unskillful repairs on your own.

Thresholds on the Peugeot 307 are of different types: removable and non-removable, internal and external, they can be welded to the bottom of the body, or they can simply be bolted. To extend their service life, they can be painted, sometimes special plastic linings are installed on them, a silicone or rubber seal can go along the edge, often there is an anti-slip corrugated liner on the outer sills. The threshold can be reinforced to support loads of up to 200 kg.

The cost of repairing thresholds in St. Petersburg:

Repair of Peugeot 307 thresholds depends on the degree of damage, on whether it can be done without removing the threshold. The most common repair method is with a spot welder, or spotter. If there are holes, steel patches are put, dents can be removed with the help of straightening. In our car services, we will carry out repairs using special equipment, including, if necessary, we will pull out dents with hydraulics. After the repair, we will treat the thresholds with anticorrosive or install electrochemical protection, depending on your desire.

You can repair the Peugeot 307 thresholds yourself if you know how to handle a welding machine and the damage is small. Sometimes you can even get by with the repair with epoxy mastics and special fabric, but this will be a short-lived repair. Therefore, we still recommend that you contact our car services to save time, money and effort, carry out guaranteed high-quality repairs.

When to repair thresholds:
- Externally visible dents, holes, distortions;
- It is required to replace the linings, seals;
- Damage to the thresholds is small and does not need to be changed, but repairs can be done.
