corner frame
Explanation:
Corner frame should do the trick.

1. case, frame, timber framing (für Türen, Fenster)
2. closing edge (Schließkante)
[Gelbrich/Reinwaldt, Bauwesen]

Zarge - Zargen sind Bretter oder Leisten in Rahmen- bzw. Kastenform. Sie verbinden die Ecken von Tischen oder Stühlen zur besseren Stabilität. Bei diesem Bohrvorgang muß zwischen Leiste und Zarge ein dünnes Brettchen geschoben werden.

And this last one is trilingual E/G/F. While they do use "corner frame" in the English; they use "Türzarge" (not Eckzarge) in the German. Still, it might be a useful reference.
