Door rail system
An improved door rail system for holding a panel, such as a glass panel, is presented. The door rail system includes a core rail and clamping rails having a wedging geometry so that when the clamping rails are actuated with respect to the core rail, clamping force is applied to the glass panel to secure the panel within the core rail. The improved door rail system accommodates panels of varying thickness, features the use of modular side covers and incorporates a door to door jamb adjustment device allowing for angular adjustments.
Threshold and threshold cap
A threshold has a substrate, a sill deck, an upstanding nosing, and an upstanding dam. An upwardly open sill channel is defined between the upstanding nosing and the upstanding dam. A threshold cap extends along and at least partially overlies the upwardly open sill channel. At least one holder is formed separate from the threshold cap and is located in the upwardly open sill channel between the upstanding dam and the upstanding nosing, the at least one holder at least partially supporting the threshold cap. The holder is removably disposed within the sill channel. The threshold cap is pivotably attached to the holder. The threshold cap is capable of rotating between a raised position and a lowered position. In at least the raised position, a highest point of the threshold cap is closer to the upstanding dam than the upstanding nosing.
CROSS-LINKED POLYETHYLENE FOAM INSULATION FOR WINDOW AND DOOR FRAMES
There is a frame insulator that covers a window or door frame. A door or window has one or more panels that are supported by frame members. The frame members have interior surfaces and exterior surfaces. The one or more panels are mounted on the frame members. The interior surfaces or the exterior surfaces or both are enclosed by sheets of cross-linked polyethylene foam extending adjacent to the one or more panels and forming frame insulators.
MODULAR FRAME DESIGN
A modular window assembly including a base frame, an interior frame cover, and an exterior frame cover. The base frame has a first complementary fastener located on an exterior face and a second complementary fastener located on an interior face. Each of the interior and exterior frame covers have a complementary fastener configured to releasably mate with the first and second complementary fasteners of the interior face and exterior face, respectively.
Energy saving security composite window
An energy-saving security composite window comprising a peripheral side frame and glass installed on the side frame, in which the side frame is of composite structure. A rectangular high strength metal pipe is located centrally to serve as a main body of the side frame and a cavity of the rectangular high-strength metal pipe is filled with a filling material. A plurality of non-metal profiles are respectively fixed on an outer surface of the rectangular high-strength metal pipe, and an installation groove for installing glass is formed between the rectangular high strength metal pipe and the non-metal profile. An external profile is a metal alloy material, a wooden material, a plastic material, or a glass material fixed on an outer surface of the non-metal profile. The performances of external windows of buildings, such as heat insulation, heat preservation, energy saving, sound insulation, and wind pressure resistance, is improved.

Glazing system for high wind area
A glazing system that facilitates protecting windows from damage caused by high winds. The glazing system, for use with windows in doors, transoms, and in windows adjacent to doorways is an extruded polymeric frame that surrounds and supports and seals the window in place. The frame includes a stacked screw boss accessible from the exterior after removing a lineal cap. The screw boss receives screws use to hold a panel in place over the window during high winds to protect the window and which panel may be easily and quickly removed when the high winds pass. The interior side of the frame also has a screw path usable for attaching brackets for blinds to the back of the frame.
FENESTRATION ASSEMBLIES INCLUDING COMPOSITE FRAME CORES AND METHODS FOR SAME
A fenestration assembly includes a glazing unit includes a pane spacer between exterior and interior panes proximate glazing unit edges. A fenestration frame is coupled around the glazing unit and includes a frame core extending around the glazing unit. The frame core includes a unitary core wall including a composite material that is hollow and extends continuously from a core interior face to a core exterior face. A metal glazing cap is coupled with the frame core. The metal glazing cap having a cap end indirectly engaged with the glazing unit along the interior pane, and the cap end is remote from the pane spacer. Each of the core exterior face, the pane spacer and the metal glazing cap are thermally isolated from each other with the frame core including the unitary core wall.
Storm or secondary window installation system and method of installation
A secondary window system installable within a primary window frame that includes a top horizontal member, a bottom horizontal member spaced from the top horizontal member, and first and second side members, the secondary window system including a top channel member attachable to and extending along at least a portion of the top horizontal member of the primary window frame, a secondary window frame comprising a header, a sill spaced from the header, first and second side jambs spaced from each other and extending from the header to the sill, and a secondary window opening defined by the secondary window frame, a top channel retainer engageable with the header of the secondary window frame, and at least one hanger engageable with the top channel member and the top channel retainer, wherein the secondary window frame is rotatably moveable relative to the primary window frame about the at least one hanger.
