Abstract:
A window well is snapped into place on the foundation adjacent a window opening. During the pouring of the foundation wall, a pair of spaced and generally parallel channels are embedded in the wall and directed outwardly on the outer face of the poured concrete wall. The channels are seated on the wall form panels used in constructing the foundation wall and after the concrete has been poured and cured, the wall form panels are removed and the channels remain embedded and exposed on the outer face of the concrete wall. The channels provide a slot into which one of the generally vertical terminal edges of the window well structure may be inserted for attachment to the wall. The window well includes a number of clips which secure the window well to the foundation wall once they are inserted into the channel.

Claim (Index 9):
A system for mounting a window well proximate a window opening in a poured concrete wall, the system comprising:\n a plurality of wall panels at least two of which are spaced from each other in a confronting relationship with a face of each of the at least two wall panels facing one another; a pair of channels each of which is mounted to one of the faces of one of the at least two wall panels, each channel of the pair of channels being spaced from the other channel of the pair of channels and on opposite sides of a location of the window opening, each channel of the pair of channels having an opening therein adapted to receive a terminal edge of the window well; a mounting mechanism releasably mounting the pair of channels to the one of the faces of one of the at least two wall panels; wherein when uncured concrete is poured between the spaced wall panels, the pair of channels are embedded in the uncured concrete such that when the uncured concrete cures and the plurality of wall panels is removed from the poured concrete wall, the pair of channels remain embedded in the poured concrete wall with the opening of each of the channels of the pair of channels exposed on the poured concrete wall to receive the terminal edge of the window well, the mounting mechanism releasing the associated wall panel from the pair of channels upon removal of the plurality of wall panels from the poured concrete wall.
