Abstract
A door privacy screen including two strips (20 and 30) for blocking any line of sight through the space between the hinged-end surface (13) of a door (12) and the doorjamb (16). The first strip (20) is adhered to the hinged-end surface (13) of the door (12), and has a first portion (22) that extends beyond the door (12) in a direction orthogonal to the inside surface (14) of the door (12) substantially to the longitudinally central axis (42) of the door hinge (40). The second strip (30) is adhered to the doorjamb (16), and has a second portion (32) extending beyond the doorjamb (16) in a direction orthogonal to the inside surface (14) of the door (12) when the door (12) is in a closed position. The second portion (32) includes an arcuate portion (34) having a center of curvature coincident with the longitudinally central axis (42) of the door hinge (40). The first portion (22) and second portion (32) cooperatively overlap to block any line of sight.
