Swedish to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Architecture / Windows and patio doors
Swedish term or phrase: mötesbågar
Öppningsbara fönster, 2 + 1 glas i kopplade inåtgående bågar (ej mötesbågar)
Opening window, 2 + 1 pane in connected inward arcs (non-meeting arcs)

Fönsterdörr, 2+1 glas i kopplade utåtgående bågar.
Patio door, 2+1 pane in connected outward arcs.

Specifically I need to know the "bågar" part. Obviously "arcs" is totally wrong. I've looked at the "Fönster" page on Swedish Wikipedia, and saw a diagram that shows where the "båge" is on the window, looks like it's referring to the part of the frame around the pane of glass itself, sitting inside the outer window frame. But I have no idea what the proper term for this is.
