A sill assembly with an adjustable threshold has: a removable cap; a housing with two vertical supporting walls to receive the cap, with two recessed channels in opposite locations of the walls; two rubber gaskets inserted into the vertical supporting walls' recessed channels; a vinyl substrate for supporting the housing; cap-screws; and adjustment screws. The cap is fastened onto housing by cap-screws which are coupled tightly below with the adjustment screws. The cap's inner walls are supported by the adjustment screws' large diametric disc. When the cap is inserted onto the housing, the interior of the cap's outer walls is compressing two rubber gaskets to create a tight sealing. Being covered by the cap and the housing's vertical supporting walls, the rubber gaskets are less susceptible to weatherization and possible damages, and the sill assembly's aesthetic appearance is enhanced because the visible part of the sill assembly looks consistent.
