Abstract

See full text

Methods related to self-sealing structural installation strip assemblies for a framed unit are discussed. The installation strip assembly comprises a main body having an inner portion and an outer portion. In some examples, a leg of the inner portion, in conjunction with portions of a unit groove seal, are received and retained in a groove of a unit frame member. The unit groove seal provides a seal between the installation strip assembly and the framed unit. At the building site, the installation strip may be folded from a substantially flush position with respect to a frame member to an outwardly extending position so that the strip may be secured using one or more fasteners to a building structure extending around a rough unit opening. The upper portion of the main body may include at least one of a fastener seal, a flashing seal, or a wall seal.
