Abstract

A mullion-less door system for refrigerated display cabinets, chillers, cold rooms or freezers, incorporates offset seal members on the respective vertical stiles of adjacent doors, to form a labyrinth seal or gasket between the doors, while still allowing free operation of each, and without requiring indirect sealing via door mullions of the cabinet body or frame. Secondary seal members, incorporating magnetic gaskets, seal the top and bottom rails of the peripheral door frames, supporting transparent door panes, to the adjacent cabinet body or frame portions. Lighting assemblies may be incorporated in the vertical stiles to illuminate the contents of the cabinets; and the hinge assemblies may incorporate self-closing mechanisms for the doors.
