Abstract: A transition shield for a door system (10) having a pair of tracks (15), which include a vertical track section (16) and a horizontal track section (17) connected by a transition track section (18) supported at least partially by a door jamb (11) to prevent objects from entering a transition space defined between the jamb and the transition track section, the transition shield (60) including a plate-like member (61) having a vertically extending forward edge (64) configured to fit proximate the jamb and extending rearward an extent sufficient to overly at least a portion of the transition track section to cover the transition space.

Abstract: A door system (10) used in connection with an opening defined by a pair of jambs (11) and a laterally extending header (12) connecting the jambs, the door system including, a pair of tracks (15) mountable on the jambs, the tracks having a vertical track section (16) running adjacent the jambs, wherein a space (25) is defined between the tracks and the jambs along at least a portion of their length, a door (D) mounted for movement on the tracks and movable between an open position and a closed position, and a shield (30) mounted laterally outward of the tracks and adjacent thereto, the shield extending rearward from the jamb and overlying at least a portion of the tracks along the length of the vertical track section, wherein the overlying portion of the shield contacts the vertical track section along the length thereof.
