In an operator window including a perimeter frame supporting a sash therein for movement between respective open and closed positions, a plurality of reinforcement members are mounted within the sash to provide reinforcement to a latching mechanism secured thereto. When the latching mechanism comprises a plurality of separate latching points at spaced positions along a latching side of the sash, a separate reinforcement member is associated with each of the latching points which is independent and maintained in separation from the remaining reinforcement members by spacers mounted therebetween. The spacers ensure sufficient space between the reinforcement members to accommodate for differences in thermal expansion and contraction between the different materials of the reinforcement members and the sash.
