window frame
Glass panel border
The window frame is the rigid structure that holds a window's glass in place and attaches to the surrounding wall.
It includes the outer frame fixed to the building and often an inner sash that may slide or pivot.
Window frames are made from wood, aluminum, vinyl, or fiberglass: The old wooden window frames were rotting and needed replacement.
