Abstract

See full text

A frame assembly for a door light is formed with inner and outer half-frames sandwiching a translucent panel. The half-frames have a plurality of side members defining a closed polygon. Each side member includes, in cross-section, a flat portion for supporting the frame in an opening in a support, a face portion extending from the flat portion towards the center of the polygon, a third portion extending inwardly from the face portion toward the other half-frame and to a position adjacent the translucent panel, and a fourth portion extending from the third portion parallel to the face portion and away from the center of the polygon. Fasteners extend through bores in the inner half-frame and engage clips slidably adjustable in the outer half-frame to couple and secure the half-frames in the support opening. Each clip has a base with an opening receiving a fastener, and legs with flanges engaging the fourth portion and a lip on the flat portion of the outer half-frame.
