Metal frame and glass pane door element, window element, systems including same, and method for making same

An element including an insulating glass unit mounted in a metal frame assembly, said element comprising:

• an outer frame assembly comprising a unitary outer frame member, said outer frame assembly comprising a spaced plurality of mounting studs projecting from said outer frame member in perpendicular relationship to same in a first pattern aligned with a first complementary pattern of a plurality of spaced mounting bores defined in a front surface of an insulation body assembly, said plurality of mounting studs in said first pattern aligned to be received in said plurality of mounting bores in said first complementary pattern when said outer frame member is disposed in common alignment with said insulation body assembly in parallel abutting back to front surface to surface relationship with same;
• an inner frame assembly comprising a multi-part inner frame member comprising a set of discrete inner frame side members, said inner frame assembly comprising a spaced plurality of mounting studs projecting from said inner frame member in perpendicular relationship to same in a second pattern aligned with a second complementary pattern of a plurality of spaced mounting bores defined in a rear surface of said insulation body assembly, said plurality of mounting studs in said second pattern aligned to be received in said plurality of mounting bores in said second complementary pattern when said inner frame member is disposed in common alignment with said insulation body assembly in parallel abutting back to front surface to surface relationship with same;
• and
• said insulation body assembly defined by cooperation of a complementary set of intersecting adjoined elongated insulating body side members, said insulation body assembly having said front surface disposed in spaced parallel opposition to a rear surface thereof, said insulation body assembly comprising said first complementary pattern of said plurality of mounting bores defined in said front surface thereof, said insulation body assembly comprising said second complementary pattern of said second plurality of mounting bores defined in said rear surface, each of said mounting bores having a respective mounting bore sidewall spaced from an aligned one of said plurality of mounting studs received therein;
• and
• a curing connection medium in said plurality of mounting bores, said curing connection medium defining a plurality of mounting connections from said outer frame assembly to said insulating body assembly, said curing connection medium defining a plurality of mounting connections from said inner frame assembly to said insulating body assembly, said outer frame mounting connection comprising said curing connection medium joined in bonding relationship with said mounting bore sidewall, said outer frame mounting connection comprising said curing connection medium joined in bonding relationship with said mounting stud.
