Abstract
A method and apparatus for easily assembling a simulated divided light window grid is provided. A window gauge having at least one grasping means is provided to quickly assemble the simulated divided light window grid. The simulated divided light window grids are assembled by horizontally and vertically interconnecting the plurality of rigid muntin bars spaced apart using the window gauges. After completing the assembly the window gauges can be easily removed by holding the grasping means on the window gauges.

A window gauge for constructing an assembly of muntin bars comprising:
- a top edge and a bottom edge that are substantially parallel to each other, a left side edge and a right side edge that are substantially parallel to each other;
- and the top edge and the bottom edge are substantially perpendicular to the left side edge and the right side edge,
- wherein the window gauge has a thickness substantially equal to the thickness of a muntin bar.
A window gauge for constructing an assembly of muntin bars comprising:
- a three sided triangular shape;
- a uniform thickness substantially equal to the thickness of a muntin bar;
- and,
- grasping means for removing the window gauge from an assembly of a plurality muntin bars.
A window gauge for constructing an assembly of muntin bars comprising:
- a square shape with a top edge and a bottom edge that are substantially parallel to each other, a left side edge and a right side edge that are substantially parallel to each other;
- and the top edge and the bottom edge are substantially perpendicular to the left side edge and the right side edge,
- wherein the edges are connected by a plurality of rounded corner, with a thickness substantially equal to the thickness of a muntin bars;
- and,
- grasping means for removing the window gauge from an assembly of a plurality muntin bars.
