ABSTRACT:
An adjustable astragal weathering for operable doors and windows is disclosed. The weathering comprises a carrier configured to be received within a groove formed in a lateral edge of a door or window. A weathering element is mounted to the carrier and projects outward therefrom. The head portion of a threaded fastener is configured to be received within a channel formed in the carrier. The head portion of the threaded fastener is captured within the channel such that tightening the threaded fastener will retract the weathering element into the lateral edge of the door and such that backing out the threaded fastener will extend the weathering from the lateral edge of the door.
