Window assembly with serviceable glazing retention system

摘要

A window assembly includes a glazing, a frame encircling a periphery of the glazing and securable about an opening in a support structure, and at least one retaining bracket secured to the glazing. The retaining bracket can be secured to the glazing with adhesive or mechanical fasteners. The retaining bracket has at least one tab forming an interlock with the frame to secure the glazing to the frame so that the glazing is selectively removable from the frame without removing the frame from the support structure. Preferably, the retaining bracket extends through an opening in the frame and the tab engages an edge of the opening to form the interlock.
