Abstract
A flexible seal for sealing a gap between adjacent frames of a movable barrier may include a first end, a second end, and a central region extending between the first end and the second end. The first end may include a sealable surface and the second end may include a retaining surface. The central region may include a neck, legs, and a cavity. The neck may be narrower than the ends. The legs may each include an inwardly facing surface and an outwardly facing surface. The cavity may be positioned between the first end and the second end. When the flexible seal is compressed, the sealable surface may press against an adjacent frame. Further, the retaining surface and the outwardly facing surfaces may press against another adjacent frame. Further, the inwardly facing surfaces may compress the cavity such that a distance between the inwardly facing surfaces decreases.
