FILLER FRAMES FOR BUILDINGS WITH RIDGED PANELS
Filler frames for mounting on exterior or interior surfaces of metal building siding panels, and also configurable for mounting around cut-out openings in siding panels. Filler frames include one or more connected frame panels having a substantially flat top portion, and a bottom portion having a bottom surface that is shaped to nest on and mate with a correspondingly shaped portion of a repeating ridge pattern of the respective building side panel on which each of the frame panels is configured to be mounted upon, thus leaving no gaps between the filler frame and the building siding panels. Frame panels of filler frames may alternatively have one or more foam portions attached to a bottom surface providing for an effective seal. One or more gaps are formed in such foam portions to facilitate the use of fasteners for mounting of the filler frame to a building siding panel.
Sealing tape for sealing a joint
The sealing tape for sealing a joint comprises two foam strips of flexible foam, which are not formed as integral parts of each other, and which are arranged next to each other in the functional direction of the sealing tape. A film strip is arranged between the foam strips and is bonded to both foam strips. Adhesion sites between the film strips and the first foam strip are arranged only in an upper area of the first foam strip and in a lower area of the first foam strip, whereas, in an intermediate area between the upper area and the lower area of the first foam strip, the film strip is not adhesively bonded to the first foam strip.

Water management systems for fenestration products
A flashing includes a first edge, a second edge opposite from the first edge, a first surface, and a second surface on an opposite side of the flashing from the first surface. The first surface and the second surface extend between the first edge and the second edge. The first surface includes a hydrophobic region and a hydrophilic region.

Prefabricated flashing product
A prefabricated flashing product for an opening in an exterior surface of a structure includes a generally planar flange shaped to conform to the exterior surface, the flange extending outwardly from an entire perimeter of an aperture therein that corresponds to the opening, and a return that seals to the flange about the aperture and extends substantially perpendicularly therefrom toward an inward direction of the opening. The flange and the return are monolithically formed of a waterproof material. A method of integrating a fenestration product into an opening of an exterior surface of a structure includes inserting the flashing product described above into the opening, and inserting the fenestration product at least partially into the aperture of the flashing product.

CLEAR VIEW PANEL FOR OVERHEAD DOOR
Examples of the present disclosure provide an overhead door panel. The overhead door panel includes a pair of parallel glass panes, a metal frame with parallel lateral stiles oriented perpendicular to the pair of parallel glass panes, a first seal system located at a first lateral stile, and a second seal system located at a second lateral stile, wherein the first seal system and the second seal system engage with at least one glass pane of the pair of parallel glass panes and a lateral stile of the parallel lateral stiles of the metal frame such that the first seal system and the second seal system are between the at least one glass pane and the lateral stile.
Nail sealable multilayered film
A multilayer film is provided. The film includes a first inert layer, a first tie layer, a nail sealable layer, a second tie layer, and a second inert layer. Where, the nail sealable layer is between the first tie layer and the second tie layer, the first tie layer is between the first inert layer and the nail sealable layer, the second tie layer is between the second inert layer and the nail sealable layer, the total film thickness is between 0.002 inch and 0.010 inch, and the film has a Water Vapor Transmission Rate of less than 0.5 grams per one hundred square inches per day.
