Abstract: A lift rail and sill assembly for a window frame assembly includes a lift rail defining a lower rail end and an upper rail end, the lift rail further defining a seal retaining channel, the lift rail movable between an open position and a closed position; a seal received in the seal retaining channel of the lift rail; and a sill defining a lower sill end and an upper sill end, the sill comprising a sill ledge arranged at the lower sill end and a sill flange extending from the sill ledge to the upper sill end; wherein a gap is defined between the sill ledge and the lower rail end of the lift rail in the closed position to allow fluid to flow between the sill ledge and the lower rail end, and wherein the seal engages the sill flange in the closed position.

Abstract: A sash includes a stile, the stile defining a first flange and a second flange, a locking slot defined extending through the first flange; and a sash guide, the sash guide defining a first guide leg and a second guide leg, the first guide leg defining a locking tab, the locking tab extending through the locking slot.

Abstract: A window security device includes a pull handle, the pull handle defining a tongue slot extending through the pull handle from a top paddle surface to a bottom paddle surface; and a locking bar slidably attached to the pull handle, a locking bar body of the locking bar positioned adjacent to the bottom paddle surface, a tongue of the locking bar extending through the tongue slot.

Abstract: A sash includes a stile, the stile defining a first flange and a second flange, a locking slot defined extending through the first flange; and a sash guide, the sash guide defining a first guide leg and a second guide leg, the first guide leg defining a locking tab, the locking tab extending through the locking slot.

Abstract: Windows and secure corner assemblies are generally described. The windows may include a sash having stiles arranged on vertical sides thereof and rails arranged on horizontal sides thereof. Primary reinforcement members may be arranged within the stiles. Secure corner assemblies may be configured to be arranged within corners of the sash formed by intersections of the stiles and the rails. The secure corner assemblies may include at least one secondary reinforcement member arranged on an external surface of one of the rails, such as a top rail. A tilt mechanism may be configured to be coupled to a primary reinforcement member and the at least one secondary reinforcement member, thereby providing a continuous reinforcement connection around the window sash. Vinyl windows using corner assemblies according to some embodiments may have increased pressure ratings compared to vinyl windows that do not include such corner assemblies.
