Hello.
I've replaced some windows at home and need to put a strip between a couple of new fixed Elitfönster. Has anyone found an elegant solution for this? Wide or narrow strip?

According to personal preference of course, I would probably have used a handy white joint strip 8*27 or 8*33, depending on the gap:)

Can't you pull them together instead? It would have been much nicer. Then you could just put some sealant in between to seal.
 
They stick together as much as possible and at the same time have drev

A suggestion

Reviving the thread, I have the same problem. How did you solve it? Did you glue the trim? With what, if so?
My problem is outdoors, under a roof on a glazed-in porch between the window and the door frame.

The door and window do not seem to be at the same height. What you should use to cover with depends a bit on what the trims look like in general, etc.
 
Wonderful that you are perceptive But there wasn't much of an idea on a solution

I had roughly the same conditions with my front door and side light. There, I just attached a strip with brad nails (gun). No glue at all, and it's held up well for 3 years now.

It turned out nice
But the problem here is aluminum frames on both sides and just drive in between. Or can the nail gun go through alu if you had it with you?
There's wood under the aluminum frame.
 
Aren't there spacers between the door frame and window frame that can be nailed into?
It's one way to do it to be able to attach moldings.

Aha, I missed that part. No, my weak brad nails most likely don't go through aluminum. There are probably stronger ones, but that's beyond my knowledge.

I would opt to glue the trim in your case. Alternatively, some smaller screws (white window sill screws?) that you won't notice afterward.
