Sectional overhead door seal
Disclosed is an overhead sectional door including a curtain with a plurality of panels each connected to at least one adjacent panel by a hinge. The curtain is mounted between tracks that are located at either end of the panels and secured adjacent a door opening. The curtain is configured to move between an open position and a closed position by moving along the tracks. Each panel includes a labyrinth seal at each end for resisting a flow of air and/or penetration of other materials through the opening when the curtain is in the closed position. This may enable to the door to better withstand the effects of a bushfire or other harsh environmental conditions, for example. The door may also have a lintel seal for resisting a flow of air and/or penetration of other materials between a lintel of the door opening and the curtain when the curtain is in the closed position. - 3/8 Detail DC Fig. 6A Detail C Fig. 7 Fig. 6
