The window frame is entirely made of plastic and has a glazing frame to be mounted in an opening of a door and a panel frame for fitting on the glazing frame from an opposite side of the door. The frames are made of extruded plastic elements and sandwich a window frame therebetween. The elements of the glazing frame have a lip for receiving the elements of the panel frame in slide friction-fit manner. A dual durometer bead is disposed between the interfitted elements for sealing purposes. Glazing beads are also mounted in an extruded element of the glazing frame to hold a window unit in place.
