CURB-MOUNTED SKYLIGHT
A curb-mounted skylight designed for mounting on a framing protruding from the roof and forming part of its construction. The skylight has a glazing unit (1) and a support frame (2), where the distance (H2) from the skylight support surface to the outermost edge of the protective wall (22) of the section profile of the support frame (2) is not longer than the distance (H1) from the skylight support surface to the outside surface of the glazing unit (1). There is an adhesive sealing joint (5) between the glazing unit (1) and the protective wall (2).
FENESTRATION SUPPLEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USE
Aspects disclosed herein relate to a fenestration supplement system and methods of using such a system. In one aspect, the fenestration supplement system includes a fenestration supplement frame member that is configured to accept three or more fenestration supplements. In another aspect, a fenestration supplement frame member has opposing first and second ends that each receives fenestration supplements, connectors and/or hardware (such as mounting hardware). In yet another aspect, a fenestration supplement frame member includes specially shaped grooves that can accept and retain different types of connectors.
GLASS RUN
A glass run capable of reducing protrusions in surfaces thereof to the minimum, and preventing peeling of an exterior decorative member. The glass run includes a trim section and a glass run section. An outer side wall of the glass run section is formed integrally with a bottom wall of the trim section, and an exterior decorative member is attached to an exterior side surface of the glass run continuously from an upper end of the bottom wall of the trim section to a lower end of the outer side wall so as to cover the exterior side surface. An exterior lower reinforcing member formed of an olefin thermoplastic elastomer and exhibiting rigidity larger than that of the outer side wall is integrally formed in the lower end of the outer side wall so as to be bonded to an interior side surface of a lower end part of the exterior decorative member.
FLASHING FOR A BUILDING OPENING
Flashing for a building profile is formed using a flexible sheet of impermeable material. The flexible sheet has one or more fold lines extending in a first direction and spaced across the flexible sheet in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction. The one or more fold lines are defined by an increased flexibility relative to the flexibility of the flexible sheet.

ADJUSTABLE JAMB EXTENSION
Disclosed is a window or door frame assembly having a jamb extension coupling a window or door frame. The window or door frame has a longitudinal member having a surface defining a channel formed along the length of the longitudinal member. A jamb extension having a first face and a second face, a plurality of spaced apart grooves formed on the first face and extending along the length of the jamb extension, with the jamb extension configured to matingly engage the channel. A tooth coupled to the longitudinal member and configured to engage one of the plurality of grooves for coupling the jamb extension to the window or door frame. Also disclosed are kits and process for the window or door frame assembly.
DRY INSTALL RECEPTOR SYSTEM
A kit for maintaining the compression of a glazing leg gasket extending around the entire perimeter of a receptor frame. Once the glazing unit is installed within the receptor frame, the kit includes at least one sill anchor block disposed atop the sill of the receptor for engagement with the glazing frame and at least one head retention clip operable to apply a force to the glazing frame and against the receptor frame. The at least one head retention clip is adjustable to vary the compressive force applied to the glazing leg gasket.

Jacking screw for adjusting a window frame
Embodiments described herein may be directed to the functional application and method of use of a jacking screw for adjusting a window frame. In accordance with the present disclosure, adjusting the jacking screw may cause a first portion of the window frame to be lifted or lowered with respect to a second portion of the window frame. In doing so, a desired alignment of a window installed in the window frame may be achieved. This process may eliminate the use of shimming the underlying surface, thereby making it easier to install the window frame on surfaces that are not perfectly level.
