Abstract: This invention relates to a metal clad window product. The window frame and sash are basically made of milled, elongated wooden members with suitable interconnecting parts, such as mortises and tenons, at the ends of the same. A metal cladding member is attached to each elongated member before assembly of the window parts. The metal cladding member has flanges formed integral therewith which fit into rabbets in the sides of the elongated wooden members forming the frame and sash parts to secure the cladding to the part. The cladding includes an extension at one edge thereof which forms with suitable stop members in the assembled sash, a mounting for a glazing panel assembly. In the case of the window frame, the extension forms the mounting of the weather seal for sealing the sash to the window frame.
