Door assembly and components for providing electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) shielding

A seal assembly for providing electromagnetic compatibility shielding (EMC) to a door assembly, the seal assembly comprises two or more EMC gasket seals comprising:

• a first EMC gasket seal comprising:
• a proximal end having a first notch extending at least partially into a first body of the first EMC gasket seal;
• a second EMC gasket seal comprising:
• at least one distal end having a second notch extending at least partially into the second EMC gasket seal;
• and
• wherein the first notch of the first EMS gasket seal receives a second body portion of the second EMC gasket seal, and the second notch of the second EMC gasket seal receives a first body portion of the first EMC gasket seal;
• wherein the two or more gasket seals comprise:
• a cover, wherein the cover comprises a fabric made of an EMC material;
• and
• a core, wherein the core comprises a foam core;
• wherein the cover is operatively coupled over the core;
• and
• wherein the door assembly comprising a door frame operatively coupled within a door opening, and a door comprising a first face, a second face, and edges between the faces, wherein the door is operatively coupled to the door frame, and wherein seal assembly is configured to be operatively coupled to the door frame or the door such that the first EMC gasket seal and the second EMC gasket seal overlap to aid in restricting separation of the first EMC gasket seal and the second EMC gasket seal when compressed between the door and the door frame.

A method of installing a door assembly that provides electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) shielding, the method comprising:

• installing a door frame within a door opening;
• installing a door to the door frame, wherein the door comprises a first face, a second face, and edges between the faces, wherein the door is configured to be operatively coupled to the door frame;
• installing a seal assembly comprising one or more EMC seals to the door frame or the door, wherein the one or more EMC seals at least comprise two or more EMC gasket seals, wherein the two or more gasket seals comprise;
• a first EMC gasket seal comprising:
• a proximal end having a first notch extending at least partially into a first body of the first EMC gasket seal;
• a second EMC gasket seal comprising:
• at least one distal end having a second notch extending at least partially into the second EMC gasket seal;
• and
• wherein the first notch of the first EMS gasket seal receives a second body portion of the second EMC gasket seal, and the second notch of the second EMC gasket seal receives a first body portion of the first EMC gasket seal;
• and
• wherein the first EMC gasket seal and the second EMC gasket seal overlap to aid in restricting separation of the first EMC gasket seal and the second EMC gasket seal when compressed.
