Abstract
A corner guard assembly for protecting the corner of a building wall particularly in institutional type facilities from damage due to impacts with wheeled vehicles includes a vinyl retainer base plate, a plurality of fasteners for fastening the base plate to the corner of the building wall, a vinyl cover member assembled over the base plate, and endcaps assembled to the upper and lower ends of the assembly. The novel vinyl base plate further includes a rigid main body portion that is applied over the wall surface at the corner combined with a co-extruded flexible impact bumper at the apex of the main body, the impact forces being absorbed by the impact bumper. The geometry of the cover member matches the geometry of the impact bumper to maximize the surface contact area of the two components to further dissipate the impact forces.
