Abstract:
A bracket for securing insulation and/or a stiffener relative to a mullion or transom having a given width. The bracket includes a pair of legs extending from a bridge to define a receiving channel having a width equal to or smaller than the given width. The bracket can be attached to the mullion with friction. At least one of the legs defines a first receiving slot configured to receive a clip leg of a respective clip configured to engage the insulation, and an optional second receiving slot configured to receive a face of the stiffener. In an alternative configuration, the bracket can be attached to a side of the mullion via an existing anchor attachment near the floor line so that the anchor attachment does not interfere with the bracket.
