Abstract
Provided herein is an accessory kit for a curb-mounted skylight, including accessory frame members, corner keys, brackets, and an accessory. The frame members, which may have mitered ends, are sized to the dimensions of the skylight opening and are configured to interlock with a corner key element to form an accessory frame. The corner keys are configured to join the frame members at their respective mitered ends and include at least one detent for interlocking with a portion of the accessory frame member. Brackets are also provided for holding an accessory within the accessory frame, and an accessory (for example, blinds or a shade) having end portions complementary to the brackets is also included herein. The accessory kit may further comprise a flexible gasket. The kit may be shipped in an unassembled form and be assembled on-site without the need for tools.
