Abstract: A fenestration assembly includes a sash, a frame surrounding the sash, and at least one screen assembly mounted in at least one of: the top portion and the bottom portion. The frame includes a top portion, a bottom portion, and two jambs forming first slots extending lengthwise along at least a portion of the jamb. The first slots each include a screen edge retention feature. The screen assembly includes a roller assembly substantially hidden from view, a screen material attached to the roller assembly, and a plurality of raised features. Edges of the screen material extend into the first slots. The raised features are attached to each of the edges of the screen material. The raised features are configured to engage the screen edge retention features and retain each of the edges of the screen material at least partially within the first slot of each of the two jambs.

Abstract: Installation systems and methods for fenestration units configured to be set into a rough opening (RO) from interior side of a building structure or wall. The fenestration units may include a retention system coupled to the frame and operable to exert a retention force on the fenestration unit to maintain positive engagement of the fenestration unit with the rough opening framing and resist extraction of the fenestration unit from the rough opening upon insertion of the fenestration unit in the rough opening from the interior side of the rough opening.

Abstract: Installation systems and methods for fenestration units configured to be set into a rough opening (RO) from interior side of a building structure or wall. The fenestration units may include a frame having a perimeter; and at least one anchoring clip including a first anchoring clip. The first anchoring clip may be coupled to the perimeter of the frame and transitionable between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. The first anchoring clip may include a coupling bracket having a first leg and a second leg and a carrier bracket configured to receive the first leg of the coupling bracket. In the stowed configuration, the second leg projects inwardly away from the perimeter toward the center of the frame, and in the deployed configuration, the second leg projects outwardly from perimeter and away from the center of the frame.

Abstract: Sash carriers mounted to the sides of a sash support the sash in a window frame for sliding movement between sliding closed and sliding open positions. Balance springs on the sash carriers counterbalance the weight of the sash during the sliding movement. The sash can be mounted to the sash carriers for tilting movement between tilt closed and tilt open positions. Brakes on the sash carriers are actuated by the sash when the sash is moved to the tilt open position, and inhibit sliding movement of the sash carriers and sash when the sash is in the tilt open position.

Abstract: Motorized actuators for pivoting fenestration units that include both lock and open/close actuation, are addressed. Such actuators, and associated fenestration systems and methods, may achieve a variety of potential advantages, including egress functionality, ease of operation, active position control, aesthetically pleasing features (e.g., minimal design impact), intuitive controls, and others.

Abstract: A fenestration assembly includes a sash, a frame surrounding the sash, and at least one screen assembly. The sash includes at least one magnet. The sash is slideably engaged with the frame. The at least one screen assembly includes a roller assembly, a control bar, and screen material attached to the roller assembly and the control bar. The roller assembly is substantially hidden from view. The control bar includes a ferromagnetic material. The screen assembly is configured to apply tension to the screen material to wind the screen material around the roller assembly and to permit the screen material to unwind from the roller assembly under a tension applied to move the control bar away from the roller assembly. The control bar automatically engages the at least one magnet of the sash when the sash is in the closed configuration to attach the control bar to the sash.

The first body portion defines a first receiving surface and a first coupling surface and a first body peripheral surface opposite the first receiving surface and the first coupling surface. The integrated sash unit also includes a second sash portion forming a second body portion and a second receiving wall extending inwardly from the second body portion. The second receiving wall has a second inner wall surface and a second peripheral wall surface opposing the second inner wall surface. The second body portion defines a second receiving surface and a second coupling surface and a second body peripheral surface. The first coupling surface of the first sash portion is coupled to the second coupling surface of the second sash portion. The integrated sash unit also includes a first glazing panel supported by and coupled to the first inner wall surface of the first sash portion without being coupled to the second sash portion and a second glazing panel supported by and coupled to the second inner wall surface of the second sash portion without being coupled to the first sash portion.
