MH Door Window has Slipped

[Fredk20716]

I noticed today that after a rain I had some water on the inside of the MH door window. Further inspection revealed the window had slipped down from the moldings aprx ¼”. I managed to move it partially back in place. I have not yet tackled it beyond pushing it partially back into the molding. Has anyone else experienced this and if so what was the fix.

We replaced the frames on ours this year as the outside frame was cracked and rotted from weather and sun.
The glass was not 'secured' in anyway, would rattle at times, and we found it best to secure it to the the new frames with silicone for support and sealing.
Just be real careful when removing the screws on the inside frame and be ready for the glass to fall.

I'd be using butyl tape.....then trim off the squeeze out....and you can use masking tape to hold outer frame in place

Remove the window and frame. Shim the bottom of the glass with lengths of plastic (think zip ties, etc.). Reassemble. Use new butyl tape on the outside screw frame back together - alternating top bottom and side, tighten evenly.

Retighten in a few days.

Well today I finally repaired the door window pictured above. Turns out the reason for the window slip in addition to the silicone failing from being old, is that the bottom plastic studs attached to the frame were broke. I guess that is the reason the prior owner(s) slipped a wood block under the glass. BTW the wood block was not thick enough to push the window up inside the frame. So I reversed the frame allowing the remaining studs to hold the bottom of the window, caulked it into the frame and used butyl tape on the exterior frame to seal it. As stated above be careful when handling because the window will fall out. Thanks for the advice.
