ABSTRACT:
An edge guard for the trailing edge of a swinging closure comprises a metal strip formed into a general U-shape so as to have inner and outer legs of single thickness extending from a semi-circular base. Non-metallic insulating material is applied to the metal strip so as to be disposed in covering relation to at least certain portions of the strip including a covering relation which prevents the metal of the channel from contacting the trailing edge. Some non-metallic material is applied to the metal strip at locations where the legs apply self-retention force to the trailing edge and has a higher durometer than at other locations where non-metallic material is applied to the metal channel. In the preferred embodiment the higher durometer material also covers the distal end edge surfaces of the legs.
