ABSTRACT:
In a demountable office partition system, batten mounts with a base and legs of a resilient hard plastic are snap fit to supporting structures by reason of inwardly directed opposed flanges on the legs. The legs of the batten mounts also have soft plastic externally directed fingers to which a batten may be press fit. Use of the batten mounts permits the batten to be removed without damage. In another embodiment, the base of the batten mounts have a first set of depending inner legs with inwardly directed flanges and a second pair of depending outer legs with outwardly directed flanges outwardly spaced from the inner legs. The batten mount is fabricated of a resilient hard plastic. Again, the batten mounts may be snap fit to a supporting structure. However, in this embodiment, a batten is snap fit to the batten mounts. The batten may be removed from the batten mount without damage due to the resilience of the outer legs.
