ABSTRACT:
To maintain a premanufactured sliding sash window assembly square and distortion-free during shipment and until completely installed in a building, the two vertical sides of the window frame are connected by a tension element which prevents outward bowing of the two frame sides. Protective clips are installed on the top and bottom rails of the exterior sliding window sash near the corners of the sash and are secured to the sash by adjustable clip and sash encircling bands. The upper sash clips include posts which are releasably anchored to interior faces of the window frame. The upper and lower sash clips include vertical spacing fingers which engage between the vertical edges of the exterior sash and opposing vertical faces of the window frame to provide proper spacing of the exterior sash relative to the vertical sides of the frame. The system causes the exterior sash to be locked within the frame near the top of the frame and to form a powerful brace for the window frame during handling, shipping and installation of the window assembly. The rigidifying system is removed from the assembly only after the installation of the assembly is completed.
