Abstract
A snap-in glazing pocket filler is disclosed for use with a structural frame member having an unused glazing pocket. The glazing pocket filler includes an elongated metal plate having front and rear faces and being dimensioned to cover said glazing pocket. A pair of plastic retaining legs are fastened to the elongated metal plate and extend rearwardly and outwardly thereof to engage the walls of the glazing pocket. In one aspect of the invention, the plastic retaining legs are pivotably fastened to the metal plate such that when the glazing pocket filler is snapped into the glazing pocket, the legs pivot outwardly to facilitate engagement of the legs with the pocket walls. In the disclosed embodiment, the plastic retaining legs comprise rigid stems having flexible barbs projecting outwardly therefrom to engage the pocket walls. The flexible barbs and rigid stems are coextruded of flexible and rigid polyvinyl chloride.
