A profile assembly includes two profile elements, a profile connecter element, and at least one fastening element connecting the two profile elements to each other using the profile connecter element. The first profile element includes guide channels for receiving two leg parts of the profile connecter element. The first profile element includes at least one fastening channel for receiving the fastening. The second profile element includes a U-shaped recess for receiving the profile connecter element. In the base, the profile connecter element and second profile element in the bottom of the U-shaped recess thereof respectively include at least one mounting opening corresponding to the fastening channel for passing the fastening element there-through. At least the second profile element is formed in several parts and includes two shell parts in the direction of interior and exterior rooms. The profile shell parts are connected to each other, yet thermally insulated.

According to one example, a window system includes a window and further includes a frame that can be coupled to an opening in a structure. The frame includes one or more window seats and one or more moveable window stops. The one or more window seats can surround all or a portion of a periphery of the window. The one or more moveable window stops can be moved and coupled to different positions along a depth of the one or more window seats. The window includes a first window portion, a second window portion, and an interlayer positioned in-between the first window portion and the second window portion. The interlayer extends out of the periphery of the window.

A mitre joint for a metallic frame of a fenestration unit includes first and second frame members; a connector configured to locate the first and second frame members in relation to one another; and first and second fasteners configured to secure the first and second frame members to the connector. The connector has a first arm configured to extend within a hollow profile defined by the first frame member, and a second arm configured to extend within a hollow profile defined by the second frame member. A longitudinal axis of each of the first and second fasteners is configured to be parallel to a longitudinal axis of the respective connector arm. Each of the first and second fasteners is configured to engage the respective frame member when the respective connector arm extends within said frame member.

A square window is constructed from four aluminum portions that accommodate a shade assembly, securement of a glass pane, and a hook for installation. The square window frame accommodates more window covering options and is easier to install without requiring radiuses or curves to be cut in the vehicle wall.

The invention relates to a frame structure, such as a window sash or a frame for a window or door, comprising a core made from at least one core member made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) with a density of 80-200 kg/m.sup.3 and a shell of polyurethane (PUR) encasing the core. The core may include a plurality of core members, some of which may be made from a different material.

The support and insulation element for supporting and insulating a window frame has a support part and an insulating part. The support part has a first leg comprising a first side surface, a second leg, which projects from the first leg, and a third leg, which projects from the first leg a certain distance away from the second leg. The support part is made of load-bearing material. The insulating part is arranged at least on the side of the first leg of the support part opposite the first side surface and is made of compacted mineral wool or a rigid foam. The insulating part comprises two slots, into which the second leg and the third leg of the support part are inserted. The insulating part surrounds three sides of both the second leg and the third leg of the support part.

The building section comprises a wall and a peripheral window case, into which a window frame is inserted. The window case comprises several support sections arranged a certain distance apart and standing laterally out from the wall, each support section comprising a support part and an insulating part. The first leg of the support part is screwed to the wall, whereas the window frame is screwed to the second leg of the support part. The insulating part surrounds three sides of the second leg of the support part. In the areas between the support sections, the window case comprises insulating sections. The insulating parts of the support sections and the insulating sections bring about a substantially continuous insulation of the window frame around the window case.

A security panel mounting system having a mounting unit configured to attach to a mounting surface; a securing unit configured to engage with the mounting unit wherein the engagement of the securing unit with the mounting unit forms a base fixture; a first narrow gasket and a second narrow gasket, each narrow gasket having: a narrow gasket body; a T-shaped narrow gasket handle attached to the narrow gasket body; and a gasket hollow nested within the narrow gasket body; wherein each narrow gasket handle is configured to engage with a corresponding structure within the base fixture to secure a security panel within the base fixture; and a cover configured to engage with the base fixture. An advantage is that the hollow within each narrow gasket may allow an impact to the panel to be responded more flexibly, reducing the likelihood of the mounting system being damaged from the impact.

A customizable storm protection system for protection and aesthetics comprises a first jamb, a second jamb, a header, and a sill, each with a glazing recess, and each with a receptacle for inserting a screw boss that runs a length of each of the first jamb, the second jamb, the header, and the sill, wherein joined define a frame for the opening in a building. A customizable storm protection system may further comprise glazing received by the glazing recess of each of the first jamb, the second jamb, the header, and the sill. A customizable storm protection system may further comprise a storm track configured to the frame to, wherein the storm track identifies fastener locations for the screw boss within the frame, and wherein the storm track comprises a cap, a stanchion, and an attachment layer for attachment to the frame. The system enables different openings in a building to be individually customized for different types of storm protection while maintaining a uniform exterior appearance.
