Glass lite retention systems and related methods are described herein. The glass lite retention systems and methods of resisting water penetration through the junctions between the glass lites and the openings in the fenestration panels when the fenestration panels are subjected to extreme weather events.

Glass lite retention systems and methods for improved performance

Tilt latch apparatus and sashes incorporating the same are described herein. The tilt latch apparatus tilt latch apparatus may provide a convenient mechanism for a user to release the tilt latches on a sash with one hand while controlling movement (e.g., rotation) of the sash with another hand.

Adaptable fenestration frame members, fenestration units using the frame members, and methods of adapting the fenestration frame members. The adaptable fenestration frame members provide a construction that is adaptable for use in both pocket and non-pocket installations by including an adaptation channel forming an outside corner along one edge of the fenestration frame member. Removal of the outside corner converts that portion of the frame member from an outside corner to an inside corner, thus adapting the frame member for use in a pocket installation.

Disclosed is a window and lock assembly for releasably locking a sash component of a window in a closed position with respect to a frame component; wherein the lock assembly includes two catches mounted on said frame component at spaced apart positions. The catches are rotatably movable between locked and unlocked positions, wherein a slide bar connects the two catches. Rotation of the first catch causes rotation of the second catch, wherein in the unlocked position the first catch is rotationally closer to the first keeper than the second catch is to the second keeper.

Casement lock

A joint structure for connecting framing components such as sash members for a window is disclosed having separate functional and decorative junctions between adjacent framing components. The functional junction between components may be formed between opposing and abutting mitered mating surfaces defined at adjacent ends of the component, and a separate squared flange and cooperative recess may be formed on interior surfaces of the components for overlapping the mating surfaces and providing a decorative junction, for example, having the appearance of a mortise and tenon joint. The joint structure is particularly suited for use in custom or replacement applications whereby lineal extruded members formed of a heat weldable material may be cut to size having the aforementioned surfaces, and then heat welded together to form a custom sized framing structures such as a sash or frame for a window or door.

Method and apparatus for extending a frame

The present invention provides a window screen having operators that secure the window screen relative to a window frame. A pair of single rail operators releasably secure the upper end of the screen relative to the upper end of the window frame. A pair of double rail operators releasably secure the lower end and sides of the screen relative to the lower end and sides of the window frame.

Double hung window

A corner lock includes a first member that is secured to a first window frame segment and a second member that is secured to the first member and a second window frame segment. The first member is inserted into an opening in an end of the first window frame segment, and a partial turn thereof anchors the first member relative to the first window frame segment. A ring on a protruding end of the first member abuts an end of the second window frame segment, and the second member inserts through this ring and is secured within the end of the second window frame segment.
