ABSTRACT:
An improved attachment system for mounting a furniture component, such as a work surface member, on the slotted vertical rails of a wall panel. The component connection system is comprised of a hook carrying component support adapted to be secured to a slotted vertical rail of a wall panel and releasably engageable with a component catch-track mechanism. The component support contains a latch-rail for securing a component such as a work surface by cooperating with the catch-track mechanism of the work surface. The component catch-track mechanism, when mounted on the component support, automatically engages the component support latch-rail member to fixedly align, draw together and connect both the component support and component catch-track mechanism. The improved attachment system method also eliminates the movement or disturbance of portable wall panel structures during the installation process.
