A structural frame member, such as for constructing a window frame, includes a body portion having a first section defining a number of axially extending passages and a second section defining a key passage area. A cap portion is engaged with the key passage area to define an enclosed key passage. The key passage area may be defined by a pair of protrusions that extend from a wall on the body portion, and the cap portion is engaged with the pair of protrusions. The cap portion and the protrusions may include snap-type engagement structure that secures the cap portion to the pair of protrusions. The enclosed key passage may extend across a majority of the depth of the body portion. A frame assembly formed of at least a pair of structural frame members, and a method of assembling a frame member, are also disclosed.

A frame assembly that includes at least two frame members that are connected to one another. A corner key cavity is formed at the outer sides of adjacent frame members and is shaped to cooperate with a corner key. The corner key cooperates with the corner key cavity to secure adjacent frame members to one another. The corner key cavity is formed at or near the outer perimeter of the joined frame members, and extends across a majority of the depth of the frame members. The frame assembly may include a number of frame members that, when secured to one another, define a window frame assembly.

A structural connection arrangement and method for connecting at least two sash, stile, mullion, or frame members of window and/or door frame assemblies that are oriented in crossing orientations when connected to one another. The connection arrangement includes at least two elongate members that each extend along a respective longitudinal axis. A pair of openings are formed in one of the elongate members and oriented to face in a crossing direction relative to the longitudinal axis of the respective member. A pair of connection members is secured to the other of the elongate members of the frame assembly and extends beyond the elongate member so that each connection member cooperates with one of the pair of openings and overlaps an interface between the two elongate members.

A glazing system for a wooden door or window employs coextruded vinyl trim strips which have a planar base with flexible compression members and flexible seal tubes and a projecting barb extending from the base. The trim strips engage in kerfs in the window sash and the seal tubes are compressed against the window lights by extruded aluminum trim caps which engage with the trim strip barbs and against the sash. Sashes which have more than one light separated by a wooden muntin are glazed with a vinyl extruded muntin strip which is attached to the muntin so that a flexible seal tube which is a part of the muntin strip base overlies the glass lights on each side of the muntin. An extruded aluminum muntin cap is snap-fit to the muntin strip such that the muntin strip seal tubes are compressed against the window glass. The aluminum muntin cap and trim caps substantially cover and shield the trim strips and muntin strips from exposure to sunlight.
