Abstract

See full text

The improved system is used for mounting a 'wall standard,' i.e., an elongate, slotted strip to which shelf support brackets are attached. The standard is in a wall-like display structure of the type having plural support studs. The improved system includes a box-like 'filler' or spacer mounted between the studs. The spacer has at least one exposed edge used to attach a retention assembly for holding panels to the wall 'skeleton.' The assembly includes a pair of upright members which are commonly-shaped but mounted in inverted 'mirror image' relationship one to the other. Such upright members each have several spaced tabs, each of which is 'interposed' between tabs of the other upright member. Tabs of both upright members are attached to the first edge for panel support. Using commonly-shaped, inverted-mounted upright members increases installation flexibility and reduces parts inventory. Certain system features accommodate wall panels of differing thickness and mount panels for quick attachment and removal. The system lends itself well to easy adjustment of standard location and off-site fabrication.
