# Add a threshold
You can add as many thresholds to a panel as you want. Grafana automatically sorts thresholds from highest value to lowest.
## Before you begin

**To add a threshold**:
1. Edit the panel to which you want to add a threshold.
1. On the panel display options, locate the **Thresholds** section.
1. Click **+ Add threshold**.
Grafana adds a threshold value and color.
1. Accept the recommendations or edit the threshold.
- **Edit color:** To select a color, click the color dot.
- **Edit number:** To change the threshold value, click in the field and enter a number.
1. Select a **Threshold mode**.
Threshold mode applies to all thresholds on this panel.
1. In the **Show thresholds** drop-down, select a threshold display option.
