Abstract
An improved WATER DEFLECTOR is fitted into a glazing pocket of the vertical frame member so as to fully extend between the opposed marginal faces and be coplanar with the opposed marginal faces of the vertical frame member. When a horizontal frame member is assembled with the vertical frame member, the water deflector and the opposed marginal faces of the vertical frame member fully seal off the hollow horizontal frame member, the water deflector never interfering with the assembling operation.
