A framed assembly includes a first frame member defining a first inner channel, a second frame member defining a second inner channel and positioned adjacent the first frame member at a corner joint, and a corner cleat having a first leg received within the first inner channel and terminating at a first end of the corner cleat, and a second leg received within the second inner channel and terminating at a second end of the corner cleat. A passageway is defined in the corner cleat and extends between the first and second ends. The passageway places the first inner channel in communication with the second inner channel.

A fenestration unit includes a frame corner key that includes a corner key fluid outlet and a cladding having an aperture for the corner key fluid outlet. The fenestration unit also includes a weep drainage system with a fluid path defined from the frame corner key, through the corner key fluid outlet, and through the aperture to drain from the fenestration unit.

A frame assembly supporting an overhead door has a horizontal header connected to upright columns or posts with splice assemblies. Fasteners mounted on the columns cooperate with retainers on the splice assemblies to position and connect the columns to the header. Hinge assemblies pivotally mount the door on the header for movement between open and closed positions.

A frame connector for securing a first frame member to a second frame member, the frame connector comprising a first body having a first pair of arms extending along first and second axes from a origin mitre plane to respective free ends; a second body adjacent to the first body and having a contact surface and a second pair of arms extending from the origin mitre plane to respective free ends, and an actuator secured to the first body and arranged to apply a force to the contact surface in a first direction. The first and second axes are non-colinear and define a first plane. The first direction forms an acute angle to the first plane. The actuator is arranged to displace the first body relative to the second body in the first direction.

A mitred corner of a frame has a clamp 1 clamping together a top member 2 and a side member 3. The corner is at a corner of a glass panel 4 accommodated within a frame made up of four such members, each clamped together by similar clamps. The frame members are mitred at 45° with faces 8. Webs 7 of the frame members are drilled with bores 9 fixing screws 10 The screws engage in two clamp elements are used at each corner, in the form of stainless steel blocks 12,13. The block 12 has at its end close to the mitre faces 8, a 45° surface 17 and a threaded end bore 19 is provided. The block 13 has a finger 24 extending past the face 8. The finger has a clearance screw bore 25 and at its distal end a snib 26 directed towards the block 12.

A door is assembled from a plurality of straight lengths of extrusion, with the lengths of extrusion mated with corners at the top and bottom. The top corners are curved and interference fit to terminal ends of the top and side extrusions. The top and side extrusions have an opening into a cavity. As assembled, a continuous screen groove extends through the corners from the top, bottom, and side extrusions. The door includes transverse extrusions having an enclosed cross-sectional profile that are affixed to the side extrusions with alignment ends. The bottom corners interference fit to terminal ends of bottom extrusions and side extrusions.

Window lite assemblies and methods for installing the assemblies are provided herein. The assemblies described herein are configured to be installed in new and existing buildings, especially in building corners, while leaving some or all of the horizontal structural members such as headers and sills in place.
