Abstract A grill structure for use in connection with a combination screen and storm door, the grill being formed of vertical and horizontal channel members, the horizontal members comprising segments spacing the vertical members, rods extending through the channels of the horizontal members, the channels each having a rib therein and the rods each having a slot therein to receive a rod whereby the rods are non-rotatably disposed through the channels of said horizontal members to secure the framework of the grill, U-channel members from the perimeter of the grill and screws applied through said U-channel members into the ends of said rods secure the structure. The rods are held free from rotation and torsion therealong in securing the screws and the rods need not be held by hand against rotation as the screws are applied.
A grill structure for a door or window, having in combination a plurality of vertical members, a plurality of horizontal members, one of said plurality of members comprising segments having said other plurality of members therebetween, each of said segments having a channel longitudinally therethrough, each of said channels having a top wall, a rib depending from said top wall of each of said channels, said rib extending normal to a plane defined by said horizontal and vertical members, a rod having a longitudinal slot therein disposed in each of said channels receiving said rib therein thereby being retained against rotation, a perimeter member enclosing the ends of said vertical and horizontal members, and fastening means extending into the ends of said rod members through said perimeter member securing the same together.
