The present invention relates to a frame for an insect protection device for use with a building opening, comprising at least two vertical frame struts (1.1, 1.2), at least two horizontal frame struts (2.1, 2.2), and profile connectors (5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2) in each case comprising at least one first connecting arm (7) and one second connecting arm (8), characterised in that each profile connector (5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2) has a rotational joint (11) between the connecting arms (7, 8) having at least one axis of rotation (9, 10), such that in an initial position the vertical frame struts (1.1, 1.2) and the horizontal frame struts (2.1, 2.2) are oriented parallel to one another and that, by pivoting the frame struts (1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2) relative to one another about the axes of rotation (9, 10) of the rotational joints (11) of the profile connectors (5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2) connecting together two respective frame struts, the frame is able to be transferred into an assembly position in which the horizontal frame struts (2.1, 2.2) and the vertical frame struts (1.1, 1.2) are arranged in a frame plane at a right angle to one another.

A fenestration assembly includes a sash, a frame surrounding the sash, and at least one screen assembly mounted in at least one of: the top portion and the bottom portion. The frame includes a top portion, a bottom portion, and two jambs forming first slots extending lengthwise along at least a portion of the jamb. The first slots each include a screen edge retention feature. The screen assembly includes a roller assembly substantially hidden from view, a screen material attached to the roller assembly, and a plurality of raised features. Edges of the screen material extend into the first slots. The raised features are attached to each of the edges of the screen material. The raised features are configured to engage the screen edge retention features and retain each of the edges of the screen material at least partially within the first slot of each of the two jambs.

A frame may comprise three or more portions comprising an upper portion disposed adjacent an upper end of an opening and two side portions disposed along either edge of the opening, and in some cases a lower portion adjacent a lower end of an opening. A first frame segment and the second frame segment are adjustable with respect to each other in order to extend around the thickness of the opening. A third segment, such as a soffit segment may be utilized to cover at least a portion of the segments. The first frame segment, the second frame segment, and/or the soffit segment may have one or more barriers located between portions of the segments. The first frame segment may be adjusted with respect to the second frame segment, and the adjustment may be made before or after activation of the one or more barriers.

A frame may include three or more portions having an upper portion disposed adjacent an upper end of an opening and two side portions disposed along either edge of the opening, and in some cases a lower portion when the opening is for a window or some doors. A first frame segment and the second frame segment are adjustable with respect to each other in order to extend around the thickness of the door opening. The segments may have one or more thermal barriers, such as a seal (e.g., u-shaped, v-shaped, or the like seal) located between portions of the segments. The first frame segment may be adjusted with respect to the second frame segment. The adjustment of the segments may be made before or after the one or more thermal barriers are installed.

A door frame for a sliding door system may include three (3) portions having an upper portion disposed adjacent an upper end of a door opening and two side portions disposed along either edge of the door opening. A first frame segment and the second frame segment are adjustable with respect to each other in order to extend around different thickness of different door openings. The first frame segment and/or the second frame segment may have one or more caps, retainers, headers or the like coupled to the frame segments. The caps, retainers, or headers may have portions that are trimmed in order to allow them to mate with portions of the first frame segment or the second frame segment. The adjustment of the segments may be made before or after being installed.

The present invention relates to a door frame, particularly a door frame for a pre-hung door assembly, which is foldable to minimize storage space and to allow for enhanced logistic efficiencies. The door frame contains parallel, spaced apart, vertical jambs and a horizontal header connecting the top ends of the jambs. Each of the jambs and the horizontal header contains a front section and back section that are hingedly joined so that then can be folded on to each other. The hingedly joined front and back sections allow the door fame to be foldable to minimize space occupied during storage.

The present invention relates to a frame for an insect protection device for use with a building opening, comprising at least two vertical frame struts (1.1, 1.2), at least two horizontal frame struts (2.1, 2.2), and profile connectors (5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2) in each case comprising at least one first connecting arm (7) and one second connecting arm (8), characterised in that each profile connector (5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2) has a rotational joint (11) between the connecting arms (7, 8) having at least one axis of rotation (9, 10), such that in an initial position the vertical frame struts (1.1, 1.2) and the horizontal frame struts (2.1, 2.2) are oriented parallel to one another and that, by pivoting the frame struts (1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2) relative to one another about the axes of rotation (9, 10) of the rotational joints (11) of the profile connectors (5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2) connecting together two respective frame struts, the frame is able to be transferred into an assembly position in which the horizontal frame struts (2.1, 2.2) and the vertical frame struts (1.1, 1.2) are arranged in a frame plane at a right angle to one another.

A window for use on a structure has a first frame, a second frame and a fascia. The structure has a wall having an interior surface, an exterior surface, and an opening extending through the wall from the interior surface to the exterior surface. The opening has an upper edge, a lower edge, a first side, and a second side. The first frame contacts the interior surface of the wall and extends through the opening. The second frame is positioned below the opening and contacts the interior surface of the wall. The fascia is connected to the first frame and contacts the exterior surface of the wall.

The present invention relates to a door jamb assembly comprising a door stop member movably mounted thereon, configured such that the door stop is selectively operable to move from an extended, door-engaging position into a retracted door-disengaging position, and where the door stop member is adapted to initially move directly away from the face of a door with which it is in contact during use. Associated methods, door assemblies and suchlike are also provided. The door jamb assembly of the present invention is of particular use in situations where a door may be barricaded.
