ABSTRACT:
An operable wall panel is fitted at its top with retractable load transfer bolts and at its bottom with a floor engagement member. The load transfer bolts are normally biased to engage the panel guide track, while the floor engagement member provides an acoustic gasket having a serrated edge for engaging the mating edge of a floor-mounted insert. A lever and cable system provides one-step retraction of both the load transfer bolts and floor engagement member.
