Internship assignment: double door sealing

jan 22, 2025

VABO has gotten multiple request from clients for double doors (2 leaves opening in opposite directions, without a jam in the middle). A double door comes with 2 inherent problems:

• Sealing the gap between the 2 leaves.

• Sealing the location where the seal from 1 door meets the other.

Education level:

HBO

Within the project the student(s) will have to investigate the following:

• Investigate different seal types, materials and joining methods (between seals)

• Design seal holder and/or connection detail for double doors

• Design experiments and perform pressure tests to check the seals performance

VABO states that the outcome of the project has to meet the following requirements:

• Easy to integrate in the current Accedoo products

• Supply chain and cost calculation should be thoroughly mapped out (product ready to order by VABO
