A modular rail assembly for securing a panel in a door or window, comprising a rail framing member having vertically-oriented sides interconnected by a partition plate to form first and second receiving channels on opposite sides of the partition plate, the second receiving channel defined at a top side by the partition plate and on opposing sides by receiving channel walls, and a rail base extension slideably secured within the rail framing member second receiving channel. The rail base extension includes vertically-oriented sides interconnected by a partition plate, the rail base extension sides having mating surfaces on opposing external surfaces thereof for mating with internal surfaces of the rail framing member second receiving channel walls. A fastener secures the rail base extension to the rail framing member, and a panel is secured along a longitudinal axis thereof in the first receiving channel of the rail framing member.

An item of furniture includes a first furniture part, a second furniture part, and furniture hinges for pivotally connecting the first furniture part and the second furniture part. The furniture hinges are spaced apart from each other along a longitudinal direction of the first furniture part and the second furniture part, and a gap is defined between the first furniture part and the second furniture part. A cover portion extends at least between the furniture hinges so that the gap can be at least partially covered. The first furniture part and the second furniture part can be moved by the furniture hinges into a position in which the first furniture part and the second furniture part are aligned so as to be substantially coplanar relative to each other whereby the cover portion is substantially covered by the first furniture part and/or the second furniture part.

A method and system configured to correct a non-compliant, excessive gap condition between a door and a frame, correct a non-compliant, excessive gap condition between a pair of doors at the meeting edge, correct a non-compliant, excessive gap condition at least using a formed metal edge and mechanical fasteners, and correct a non-compliant, excessive gap condition at least using a formed metal edge and mechanical fasteners, whereby the formed metal edge may vary in dimensions to accommodate uneven gaps.

An apparatus comprises a composite sandwich panel, a seal, and a hinge. The composite sandwich panel has a first edge in a first over-crush edge region, wherein a thickness of the composite sandwich panel decreases within the first over-crush edge region in a direction towards the first edge. The seal is bonded to the first over-crush edge region of the composite sandwich panel and extending past the first edge. The hinge is connected to the composite sandwich panel such that an axis of rotation of the hinge is positioned over the first over-crush edge region of the composite sandwich panel.
