  • Publication number: 20040226253
    Abstract: A door molding for use with doors closing openings into food-chilling compartments, and the like, is aligned to a horizontal edge of the door and extends from one vertical side of the door to the opposite vertical side. The door molding has a back surface adjacent to the door and a convex outer surface. An elongated side surface near the horizontal edge of the door is substantially perpendicular to the door and extends from the back surface to the convex outer surface. A beveled surface opposite to the elongated side surface extends from the back surface to the convex outer surface. Rounded sides near the vertical sides of the door extend from the back surface to the convex outer surface. A plurality of cavities in the base extend from the back surface into the base toward the convex outer surface. A method of fabricating the door molding is also disclosed.
