A window assembly for selectively enabling a sash to be tilted out of the plane of the frame includes a brake and a sash retainer, the sash retainer having a reciprocally mounted bolt which upon rotation actuates the brake, and a lock which prevents reciprocation of the bolt until the bolt is rotated and the brake is engaged.

Sash retainer for window assembly

A method of manufacturing and using a window assembly and a door assembly including a wrap useful as a structural element to prevent racking and jamb bowing of the window assembly and the door assembly during transport and installation and, after installation, as an integral vapor barrier and air infiltration seal. The window and door assembly including a frame having an outward edge defining an outer face therebetween and an inward edge defining an inner face therebetween. The wrap including a film of material having an outer marginal edge secured between the frame outward edge and frame inward edge and stretched taut across a face of the frame to maintain the frame in an unracked position.

Method of manufacture and use of a multi-function wrap

A wrap useful as a structural element to prevent racking and jamb bowing of a window assembly and door assembly during transport and installation and, after installation, as an integral vapor barrier and air infiltration seal. The window and door assemblies each including a frame having an outward edge defining an outer face therebetween and an inward edge defining an inner face therebetween. The wrap including a film of material having an outer marginal edge secured between the frame outward edge and frame inward edge and stretched taut across a face of the frame to maintain the frame in an unracked position.
