The invention provides a glass door apparatus with a right and a left glass door leaf (10, 100) and functional end caps (40a, 40b, 240a, 240b), which respectively have a protrusion (52a, 52b, 252a, 252b), which, with respect to a lateral front face of the functional end cap protrudes laterally outwards in a manner at least substantially parallel to a pane face of a glass pane of one glass door leaf as well as away from said glass pane, and/or a cavity (54a, 54b, 254a, 254b) which, with respect to said lateral front face, protrudes laterally inwards in a manner is at least substantially parallel to said pane face and towards said glass pane and which, in the opposite direction, opens laterally outwardly, and wherein, in the closed state of glass door apparatus, the protrusion and/or the cavity is/are overlapped with a complementary counterpiece of the other glass door leaf.

A screen door kit for patio sliding glass doors that swing out structured and arranged to replace the sliding screen doors associated with sliding glass patio doors with a traditional, hinged screen door that is sold as an easy-to-install kit thereby eliminating the problems of sliding screen doors, which tend to come off their tracks or get stuck.

This invention is directed toward a window for a garage door panel, where the window has an opening that is surrounded by a body portion, and can be manufactured as part of the manufacture of a garage door panel, or retrofitted into an existing garage door panel. The window has a sliding door that can be slid open to allow for air ventilation, and has bars so that pets cannot escape through the window when it is open, and some combination of a sliding screen and optional security bars to keep insects out and keep pets in the garage. The optional security bars can be bolted or otherwise attached to the panel, thereby not only strengthening the panel but also making it harder for pets to escape and any burglars to enter.

A dual function door acts as both a pocket door and a hinged swinging door. A first door panel is hingedly attached to a wall for swinging. A first header rail is attached to the top of the first door panel while a second header rail is attached to an appropriate surface at the same height as the first header rail. A second door panel has rollers that slide within the first header rail. The first door panel is positionable so that the first header rail and the second header rail align allowing the second door panel to also slide within the second header rail. The two header rails can be locked in the aligned position.

A window assembly having a first sash and a second sash mounted to a window frame, the first and second sashes arranged along different vertical planes within the window frame to resemble the appearance of a double hung window. The window assembly further includes a hinge mechanism coupled to the window frame, the hinge mechanism operable to guide the first and second sashes away from the window frame to accommodate an outwardly swinging motion of the sashes in a similar fashion as a conventional awning window.

There is described a door assembly for a bathing enclosure, comprising: a frame; a rotatable panel rotatably securable to a wall; and a slidable panel slidably secured to the frame, wherein a sliding motion of the slidable panel triggers a rotation of the rotatable panel, wherein the door assembly is movable between an open position and a closed position, wherein when the door assembly is in the closed position, the rotatable and slidable panels are adjacent to one another and are unparallel and wherein when the door assembly is in the open position, the rotatable and slidable panels overlap one another and are parallel together.

The invention provides a glass door apparatus with a right and a left glass door leaf (10, 100) and functional end caps (40a, 40b, 240a, 240b), which respectively have a protrusion (52a, 52b, 252a, 252b), which, with respect to a lateral front face of the functional end cap protrudes laterally outwards in a manner at least substantially parallel to a pane face of a glass pane of one glass door leaf as well as away from said glass pane, and/or a cavity (54a, 54b, 254a, 254b) which, with respect to said lateral front face, protrudes laterally inwards in a manner is at least substantially parallel to said pane face and towards said glass pane and which, in the opposite direction, opens laterally outwardly, and wherein, in the closed state of glass door apparatus, the protrusion and/or the cavity is/are overlapped with a complementary counterpiece of the other glass door leaf.

An animal enclosure including a plurality of members defining an interior of the enclosure. One of the plurality of members includes a first member having a frame structure and door assembly formed by a plurality of interconnected horizontal and vertical wires. At least two of the horizontal wires of the frame structure form a hook positioned inside the defined opening. The door assembly is coupled to the frame and moves between an open and closed positions. The door assembly includes a first door and a second door removably coupled to one another. The enclosure also includes a latch assembly for releasing the door assembly from the frame structure. In the closed position, at least one horizontal wire of the first door and at least one horizontal wire of the second door are coupled to the hooks formed by the at least two horizontal wires of the frame structure.

A combination door assembly includes a frame that may be coupled to a wall of a building. A door is hingedly coupled to the frame such that the door is positionable between an open position and a closed position. The door comprises a first half that is slidably coupled to a second half. The second half is positionable in an open position when the door is positioned in the closed position. Thus, the second half is configured to allow egress and entry to the building when the door is in the closed position.

A window assembly having a first sash and a second sash mounted to a window frame, the first and second sashes arranged along different vertical planes within the window frame to resemble the appearance of a double hung window. The window assembly further includes a hinge mechanism coupled to the window frame and to the second sash, hinge mechanism operable to guide the second sash away from the first sash to accommodate an outwardly swinging motion of the second sash in a similar fashion as a conventional awning window. The first sash may be fixed relative to the window frame, or may alternatively be moveable upwardly or downwardly relative to the window frame.
