A refrigeration apparatus having a cabinet including a divider mullion wall is provided with a mullion rail assembly mounted to the front outer edge of the mullion wall. The mullion rail assembly includes an insulating elongated member carrying a magnetically attractable strip for cooperation with the magnetic door gasket. The strip is spaced inwardly from the outer edges of the insulating elongated member so as to be thermally insulated from the refrigerated compartment of the apparatus. The strip may be secured at one end to the cabinet and the insulating elongated member may be secured at one end to another portion of the cabinet to permit relative displacement between the strip and elongated member for facilitated installation.
