DOOR WITH FRAMELESS GLAZED UNIT, AND RELATED KIT AND METHODS
A door includes a door frame, first and second door skins having rectangular outer peripheries and inner openings, and a frameless glazed unit received at the openings. The door skins include exterior surfaces facing away from the door frame and opposite interior surfaces facing and secured to opposite sides of the door frame. The exterior and interior surfaces of the first and second door skins establish integral lips and grooves of the first and second door skins. Opposite sides of the frameless glazed unit directly contact and are sealed by the integral lips and sealant and/or adhesive contained in the grooves of the first and second door skins.

System for Installing Structural Components within Existing Walls Utilizing Ventilating Structural Components
Disclosed is a system that utilizes at least one structural frame element within an existing aperture as a universal mounting framework for securing windows, doors and other structural elements that are installed within an existing aperture of a wall. The structural frame elements are preferably made from thermally isolating materials and are fastened within the aperture using means that do not severely damage the weather membrane. The structural frame elements may have been built in finishing trim around the installed structural components. The structural components may be further secured within the structural frame elements using holding elements and projecting members, which may be removable or unitary to the structural frame elements. Some of the surfaces of the structural frame elements that are exposed to the external environment contain a pitch that promotes drainage.

Laminated Glass Retention System
A laminated glass retention system for securing a laminated glass subassembly within a window sash or frame member or door panel or similar component includes a retention member applied to the laminated glass subassembly. The retention member generally can include a leg portion that engages of the laminated glass subassembly, and can further include a base portion that is coupled to the frame member in which the laminated glass subassembly is seated. The retention member helps retain the insulating glass subassembly within its frame member when subjected to high winds and wind-borne debris.
