ABSTRACT:
A shim assembly is constructed for engaging a hinge assembly to allow operable installation of the hinge assembly in an otherwise oversized sash-frame cavity. A shim body can include at least one projecting tab for engaging a vent bar of the hinge assembly, wherein the projecting tab can be integrally formed with the shim body. Alternatively, snap rivets can be used to engage the shim body with the vent bar.
