Prefabricated flashing product
A prefabricated flashing product for an opening in an exterior surface of a structure includes a generally planar flange shaped to conform to the exterior surface, the flange extending outwardly from an entire perimeter of an aperture therein that corresponds to the opening, and a return that seals to the flange about the aperture and extends substantially perpendicularly therefrom toward an inward direction of the opening. The flange and the return are monolithically formed of a waterproof material. A method of integrating a fenestration product into an opening of an exterior surface of a structure includes inserting the flashing product described above into the opening, and inserting the fenestration product at least partially into the aperture of the flashing product.

Door jamb wrap for exterior door jamb
A door jamb wrap for use on a door jamb of an exterior door. The door jamb wrap covers openings next to the door that are commonly found on door jambs edges open at the bottom. The door jamb wrap includes a bracket having an “L” shape that can be configured to cover the openings by fastening to the door jamb.
CASING BEAD APPARATUS
A casing bead apparatus includes a base panel with at least one opening through the base panel. With the apparatus mounted at a vertical wall, the base panel is disposed along the vertical wall. A stop bead wall extends from the base panel. The stop bead wall includes a first side, a second side opposite the first side, and a flange at a distal end of the stop bead wall distal from the base panel and extending partially over the base panel. A spacing element is disposed at the second side of the stop bead wall. An adhesive element is disposed at the spacing element. With the apparatus mounted at the vertical wall, the adhesive element engages a horizontal surface perpendicular to the vertical wall to adhesively attach the apparatus at the horizontal surface and the spacing element is disposed between the stop bead wall and the horizontal surface.

POWDER COATED METAL DOOR WITH CORE
A metal door and the method of making a metal door having powder coated, front and back skins, powder coated hinge and lock channels powder coated top and bottom channel and a core positioned within the door assembly.
Interface gasket for building envelope
A gasket assembly for attaching a window to a panel opening includes an inner frame, an outer frame, and an elastic material connecting the inner frame to the outer frame. The elastic material extends contiguously and circumferentially to couple the outer frame to the inner frame. The outer frame and inner frame can include gap flanges and the elastic material can include opposing lateral side portions. The gap flanges are embedded in the lateral side portions of the elastic material. The outer frame includes connecting structure for coupling of the outer frame to the panel opening. The inner frame includes a connecting structure for coupling of the gasket assembly to the window. The gasket assembly is configured to support the window in the panel opening and form a seal between the panel opening and the window. A method of making a gasket assembly is also disclosed.
Flexible drip cap
Flexible drip cap for use with fenestration units and related methods. The flexible drip cap includes a flange member and a cap member attached to each other along a length of the drip cap, with a seal member located between the flange member and the cap member. The seal member provides a seal to limit water infiltration between the flange member and the cap member when the drip cap is positioned on a fenestration unit.
