ABSTRACT:
A sealing device for sealing a side of a slideable door. The sealing device includes a seal member, a striker plate attached to the sealing member, an outer wall, and a plurality of links in the form of resilient ribs positioned between the seal member and the outer wall. The resilient ribs force the seal member downwardly and laterally against the side of the door when the door engages the striker plate. A web may be attached to the resilient ribs, the seal member and the outer wall. The web prevents the passage of air between the ribs, and retracts the seal member from the door when the door ceases to exert a force against the striker plate.
