A fenestration system includes one or more of a light modulation controller or ventilation modulation controller. The light modulation controller is in communication with at least one light modulation element of a fenestration assembly having a frame and a panel. The light modulation controller includes a light prescription module configured to provide a specified light prescription for the building interior. A lighting difference module is configured to determine a prescription difference between the specified light prescription and ambient light. A dynamic light module of the light modulation controller operates the at least one light modulation element according to the prescription difference. The ventilation modulation controller is in communication with at least one operator configured to open and close the panel. A ventilation prescription module provides a specified ventilation prescription for the building interior, and a dynamic ventilation module implements panel closing and opening according to the specified ventilation prescription.

A mounting system and method for security screens for use with double-hung windows and other windows having an integral screen track is disclosed. The mounting system and method according to the present invention reduces materials cost for manufacture of security screens while improving aesthetics of the installation and allowing installation to be accomplished from the interior side of the window, and permits installation of security screens either at the construction site or during window manufacture, while preserving the window manufacturer's warranty. Exemplary embodiments both with and without a subframe are described.

A screen channel insert for use in connection with a fenestration unit frame including a spline channel. The screen channel insert includes a frame attachment portion for attaching the screen channel insert to the spline channel of the fenestration unit frame, and a channel portion defining an insert spline channel. The insert spline channel is configured to receive a spline to secure a screen to the screen channel insert. The insert spline channel can have different sizes than the spline channel of the frame, enabling the frame to be used with screens having different thicknesses.

The present invention relates to a kit (3) for a frame, in particular for a frame of an insect protective device, with a first preassembled frame unit (1) and a second preassembled frame unit (2), wherein the two frame units (1, 2) in each case have a first free profile strip (1.1, 2.1), a second free profile strip (1.2, 2.2), and a connecting device (1.3, 2.3) having at least one further profile strip (1.3a, 1.3b, 2.3a, 2.3b). The invention also relates to profile connectors (5) for such a kit (3).

An insect net with emergency deployment structured to be retrofit onto the roof of the cab of the typical construction or agricultural equipment vehicle. The system includes a cylindrical insect net that may be compressed into a closed deployment box positioned on the underside of the vehicle cab roof. A deployment cord is positioned adjacent the operator where it may be readily accessed and pulled to open the doors of the deployment box to allow the cylindrical net to drop (under the influence of a ring of small weights) to surround the operator within the cab. The system is structured to be re-used by replacing the cylindrical net back into the deployment box and refitting the deployment cord with pull pin to hold the deployable components within the box for subsequent use.

The present invention is generally a movable barrier assembly that includes a screen garage door that may be remotely operated to open and close an entry to a garage, thereby facilitating ventilation, and preventing debris such as leaves, insects, etc. from entering the garage. In an exemplary embodiment, a screen assembly includes a first track running substantially parallel to a second track on which a garage door travels. A movable barrier operator that actuates the garage door and screen door may include a first motor to operate the screen door, and a second motor to operate the garage door. In exemplary embodiments, a single control unit is configured to operate both motors and thus operate each movable barrier.

An extendable frame jack assembly includes a securing member comprising a first section that slidably engages a second section. In this way the securing member has a telescopically adjustable length for extending across a variety of sizes of window frames. A pair of blocks is each coupled to opposing ends of the securing member to abut the window frame. A pair of cups is each positioned on the first side of the outer surface of a respective one of the blocks. Each of the cups is centrally positioned between the primary end and the secondary end of the respective block. Additionally, each of the cups insertably receives a respective one of the first end and the second end of the securing member.
