Door trim floor gap cover system

摘要

A door trim floor gap cover system includes a trim piece operable to cover a gap between a bottom edge of door trim and a walking surface of a flooring material under the door trim (i.e., casing, jamb, and optional door stop). The trim piece may be one piece that bends about the door trim. The trim piece may be a resilient material that deforms while being positioned and is biased toward its original shape to hold onto the door casing. The trim piece may be more than one piece wherein a first portion is positioned on the casing and jamb and the second portion is then interlocked with the first portion to complete the trim piece, covering the floor gap. A pair of hooks extend behind the casing to engage a distal face of the casing, retaining the system against the door trim (casing and jamb).

主权项

1. A door trim floor gap cover system configured to cover a gap between a bottom of a door trim and a walking surface of a flooring material under the door trim when installed on the door trim, said system comprising:
a center portion extending laterally, wherein the center portion is configured to extend lateral and vertically along an outer face of a jamb of the door trim, wherein the center portion extends further laterally than vertically; a first longitudinal portion extending generally longitudinally from a first end of the center portion, wherein the first longitudinal portion is configured to extend along an outer face of a first casing of the door trim; a second longitudinal portion extending generally longitudinally from a second end of the center portion opposite the first end of the center portion, wherein the second longitudinal portion is configured to extend along an outer face of a second casing of the door trim; a first hook extending longitudinally beyond the first longitudinal portion and generally inward toward the second longitudinal portion such that the first hook engages a distal face of the first casing when the system is installed on the door trim; and a second hook extending longitudinally beyond the second longitudinal portion and generally inward toward the first longitudinal portion such that the second hook engages a distal face of the second casing when the system is installed on the door trim.
