ABSTRACT:
A window display frame having a top panel, a bottom panel and two side panels. Each panel has an inner surface defining a channel for placement of the replacement window, an outer surface, and two ends. Each side panel has a longitudinal groove extending from each end along the center of the outer surface to an end point, and a bore located adjacent each end point. The bore preferably has a depth that is greater than the depth of the groove. There are four L-shaped corner brackets mounted one on each end of the top and bottom panels. Each corner bracket comprises two legs, an inner surface, an outer surface and inwardly flanged edges. Each end of the top and bottom panels is attached to and fits snugly into the inner surface of one leg of a corner bracket between the flanged edges. The free leg of each corner bracket can then be used for attachment to a side panel to complete the frame. The free leg of each corner panel has a protrusion located on the inner surface. The frame is assembled around a replacement window by sliding the grooves in the side panels along the protrusions in the corner panels until the protrusions snap into the bores in the side panels, so that the replacement window is secured in the channels on the inside surfaces of the panels.
