  • Publication number: 20170356237
    Abstract: A prefabricated flashing product for an opening in an exterior surface of a structure includes a generally planar flange shaped to conform to the exterior surface, the flange extending outwardly from an entire perimeter of an aperture therein that corresponds to the opening, and a return that seals to the flange about the aperture and extends substantially perpendicularly therefrom toward an inward direction of the opening. The flange and the return are monolithically formed of a waterproof material. A method of integrating a fenestration product into an opening of an exterior surface of a structure includes inserting the flashing product described above into the opening, and inserting the fenestration product at least partially into the aperture of the flashing product.

  • Publication number: 20150292195
    Abstract: A flashing product is manufactured by creating a reinforcing member having a flange shaped to conform to the exterior surface. The flange may extend outwardly from an entire perimeter of an aperture in the reinforcing member. The flange may have top, bottom, and side flange members. The reinforcing member may include a return having top, bottom and side return members connected respectively to the top, bottom and side flange members. The return may extend substantially perpendicularly from the flange to conform to an inward direction of an opening where the flashing product is applied. The reinforcing member may be coated with a waterproof material thereby forming a waterproof flashing product.

  • Publication number: 20150059258
    Abstract: A expandable fenestration flashing product for an opening in an exterior surface of a structure includes a generally planar unitary flashing shaped to conform to the exterior surface, the flashing configured to extend outwardly from an entire perimeter of fenestration, and an inner portion configured to flexibly seal to the inner surface of the fenestrations. The expandable fenestration flashing product is formed as a unitary structure of a waterproof, expandable material. A method of integrating an expandable fenestration flashing product into an opening of an exterior surface of a structure includes securing the expandable fenestration flashing product described above onto the exterior of a structure about the fenestration, and pressing and securing the fenestration product at least partially into the fenestration.
