1. A fenestration assembly for use with an associated structure having a structure opening that is defined by a periphery having a first portion with a first length along the periphery and a second portion with a second length along the periphery, the fenestration assembly comprising:
a fenestration product comprising: a first surface; a second surface; a third surface, a fourth surface and, an outer periphery that is similar in size and shape to the associated structure opening periphery; a first adaptor piece comprising:
(1) a longitudinal length that:
(a) is greater than the first length; and,(b) defines first and second ends, wherein the first end comprises a first cutout section;(2) a cross-sectional shape comprising:
(a) a laterally extending main wall having: a proximal end; a distal end opposite the proximal end; a first side; and, a second side opposite the first side;(b) a support wall that extends laterally from the first side of the main wall; and,(c) a first receiver wall that extends laterally from the second side of the main wall; a second adaptor piece comprising:
(1) a longitudinal length that:
(a) is greater than the second length; and,(b) defines first and second ends, wherein the first end comprises a first cutout section;(2) a cross-sectional shape comprising:
(a) a laterally extending main wall having: a proximal end; a distal end opposite the proximal end; a first side; and, a second side opposite the first side;(b) a support wall that extends laterally from the first side of the main wall; and,(c) a first receiver wall that extends laterally from the second side of the main wall; wherein prior to installation of the window into the structure opening with the fenestration outer periphery juxtaposed to the structure opening periphery:
(1) the first adaptor piece is positioned with:
(a) the proximal end of the main wall extending into the structure opening with the second side of the main wall facing the first portion of the structure opening periphery;(b) the distal end of the main wall extending outside the structure opening;(c) at least one connector securing the main wall to the associated structure;(d) the first receiver wall extending into the first cutout section of the second adaptor piece outside the structure opening periphery;(2) the second adaptor piece is positioned with:
(a) the proximal end of the main wall extending into the structure opening with the second side of the main wall facing the second portion of the structure opening periphery;(b) the distal end of the main wall extending outside the structure opening;(c) at least one connector securing the main wall to the associated structure;(d) the first receiver wall extending into the first cutout section of the first adaptor piece outside the structure opening periphery; wherein after installation of the window into the structure opening with the fenestration outer periphery juxtaposed to the structure opening periphery:
(1) the first adaptor piece is positioned with:
(a) the proximal end of the main wall extending into the structure opening between the first portion of the structure opening periphery and the fenestration product with the second side of the main wall facing the first portion of the structure opening periphery and the first side of the main wall facing the first surface of the fenestration product; structure;(b) the distal end of the main wall extending outside the structure opening;(c) the at least one connector securing the main wall to the associated structure;(d) the first receiver wall extending into the first cutout section of the second adaptor piece outside the structure opening periphery;(2) the second adaptor piece is positioned with:
(a) the proximal end of the main wall extending into the structure opening between the second portion of the structure opening periphery and the fenestration product with the second side of the main wall facing the second portion of the structure opening periphery and the first side of the main wall facing the second surface of the fenestration product;(b) the distal end of the main wall extending outside the structure opening;(c) the at least one connector securing the main wall to the associated structure;(d) the first receiver wall extending into the first cutout section of the first adaptor piece outside the structure opening periphery;(3) the fenestration product is positioned with:
(a) the first surface supported to the first adaptor piece main wall;(b) the second surface supported to the second adaptor piece main wall;(c) the third surface supported to the first adaptor piece support wall; and,(d) the fourth surface supported to the second adaptor piece support wall. |
