Abstract: A flanged interlocking molding is provided for use in toilet partitions or other partitions, and which eliminates the sight lines along each edge of the partition door. The flanged interlocking molding, formed of a single piece of material can be arranged on a component of the partition, such as a door and/or a pilaster. The flanged interlocking molding comprises a body portion; a first arm extending from a first edge of the body portion; a flange comprising include parallel layers of the metallic material including a first layer extending in a first direction away from the body portion, and a second layer extending from the first layer in a direction opposite the first direction; and a second arm extending from the second layer of the, the second arm including an edge arranged parallel to an edge of the first arm with a gap formed therebetween.
