Seal after the door closes
An inflatable frame can remain clear of the moving door and expand after the panel reaches its closed position. This reduces sliding contact compared with a continuously compressed gasket and makes large or slightly uneven clearances easier to manage.
Coordinate the perimeter
Corner radii, hinges, latches and the air port all influence the final frame. The groove should support the seal continuously and avoid abrupt changes that can pinch the profile.
- Provide the full door perimeter drawing
- Identify latch-side movement and alignment tolerance
- Show the preferred valve and tube route
- List cleaning agents and operating temperature
Commission as a system
Test inflation timing, door interlocks and pressure control together. The door should not move until the seal is fully retracted, and the seal should not be inflated against an open or misaligned panel.
