A pressure relief assembly (24) includes an aircraft engine cowl (26) having radially outer and inner skins (28,30) having an opening. A door frame (32) is joined around the perimeter of the opening and defines a door seat (34) surrounding a central portal (36). A pressure relief door (38) is joined to the cowl (26) to cover the portal (36). The door (38) has inner and outer surfaces (40,42) terminating in a perimeter rim (44), with the inner surface (40) of the rim (44) overlapping the door seat (34) to define a primary seal (46) with the door stowed closed. A fireproof secondary seal (48) bridges the door inner surface (40) and frame (32) around the inner perimeter of the primary seal (46) to pre-seal flow to the primary seal (46).
