FRAME OPTIONS<br />
There are multiple frame options for hinged panels depending on your requirements and the<br />
condition of the window. Frames can be mounted inside or outside the window.<br />
Panels can be directly mounted into the recess using hang strip on left and right sides with rebate<br />
(L shaped hinges) and light block at top and bottom, however this may draw attention to<br />
problem windows. Frames are useful for windows that are out of square to hide any resulting<br />
gaps. The factory will deduct 4mm from your gross width and drop to allow for your L frame to be<br />
recessed, and 5mm from width and drop for a Z frame.<br />
If using an L frame, it is advisable to fill any resulting gaps with a good quality gap filler. If your<br />
window size varies by more than 5mm however, it is advisable to use a Z frame for a more<br />
cosmetically pleasing result. Z frame is also useful for square set windows, or those without any<br />
window trims.<br />
Z frame configurations where a window sill, wall etc, impedes the overlap, may be supplied with<br />
the lip of the Z frame cut back to accommodate this. Decorative Z frame is available with a<br />
matching sill plate.<br />
T posts are used to hinge multiple panels into wide openings, or to accommodate layouts where<br />
there is a natural break or mullion in the window you wish to match. Corner and bay posts are<br />
used to install as one complete frame.<br />
