ABSTRACT:
A door sweep is integrally formed of synthetic resin with a generally planar body portion which is mounted on the bottom of the door and a face sealing portion along its one side. This includes a sealing element which extends upwardly from the body portion and has an inner surface adapted to bear against the surface of the door. A pivot arm on the inner face of the sealing element intermediate its length extends in the direction of the other side of the body portion. When the door sweep is moved against the bottom edge of the door, the pivot arm is pushed towards the body portion and the sealing element is pivoted against the face of the door. Sealing elements depending from the other face of the body portion provide a seal between the door and its sill.
