Abstract

A wall structure for merchandise display in a retail store or the like that stands free of attachment to any fixed element of the building such as floor, ceiling or wall. The wall of the invention may be set up in a variety of forms such as rectangular, zigzag, linear, polygonal, etc., and comprises in all arrangements uprights providing corner units and spacer struts for supporting display panels. To said uprights are secured by quick-detachable means upper and lower stringers, the interconnecting elements being preferably in the form of simple channel members. The corner units comprise structural shapes with detachable corner covers to enhance appearance. Means for detachably mounting panel members is provided in the form of grooved channel members in opposed, spaced relation on the uprights. An important feature is great reduction in on-site labor, with consequent installation economies, made possible in part by welded units for corners and other upright assemblies to which top and bottom stringers may be quickly assembled and disconnected. In elongated wall structures where added structural support is desired, I provide extended, ceiling attachable uprights.
