Default Can I make different colour gridlines in a single chart in Excel?

One particular horizontal gridline in my Excel chart marks a significant
limit. This gridline should be highlighted.

The gridlines above and below this can remain black.

The best bet is to introduce an extra series, with X values at (or beyond)
the min and max limits for your chart, and Y values at your particular
value.
