ABSTRACT:
A window grille retaining system includes a two-piece spring clip assembly. One of the pieces is formed as a pin that is carried within a slot formed in a bottom surface of the grille molding. The other piece is formed as a bracket having a first arm that is formed as a blade for anchoring the bracket to a window sash and a second arm that is formed as a spring clip. Fingers are formed in the spring clip for engaging the pin with a snap-type engagement. The spring clip arm is spaced from the sash so that the fingers can engage the pin in different positions along the length of the pin to accommodate variation in the lengths of the grille molding.
