Abstract
A fenestration unit includes a frame and a sash. The sash includes a glide support member and a projection. The frame includes a frame member that is elongate. The frame member at least partly defines a panel seat that opposes the panel peripheral area when the sash closed, a support track configured to engage and support the glide support member for gliding movement of the sash, and a guide channel that receives the projection to guide gliding movement of the sash. The frame member includes a diverter channel extending between the panel seat and the guide channel and is configured to receive the projection to guide movement of the sash. The frame member includes a recess providing clearance between the frame member and the glide support member as the sash moves.
