ABSTRACT:
A slide mechanism for providing non-binding adjustment of the spacing between the components of an elongated structural member such as the vertical and horizontal frame members of a door or window frame for accommodating different buck widths during installation. The slide mechanism comprises a channel member and a tongue member adapted to slideably engage one another in loosely fitting relation to preclude binding during width adjustment. Each frame member is preferably provided with at least two such sliding mechanisms of which preferably one provides a dimpled channel member for assuring precise transverse registry of the frame components. By dimpling only one such channel member, a degree of non-binding angular or rotational motion between frame components is provided to facilitate easy installation.
