Molded window assembly includes a window frame having a generally flat bottom wall to which a transom stiffener is attached, and a sill extending downwardly from the front edge of the bottom wall in front of the stiffener. End blocks are telescopically received in opposite ends of the stiffener to take up any clearance space between the ends of the stiffener and the adjacent sides of spaced apart wall studs in an opening in an exterior wall in which the window assembly is mounted above a window or patio door unit therebelow. Universal nailing plates at the outer ends of the end blocks facilitate attachment of the ends of the stiffener to the sides of the wall studs for transferring the weight of the window assembly to the wall studs. Also, universal corner plates have one end inserted between the nailing plates and adjacent side of the wall studs for attachment thereto, and the other end extends at right angles thereto and is secured to the back edge of the wall studs to transfer the shear or torque loads caused by the window assembly to the wall studs.
