ABSTRACT:
A molding strip assembly comprising linear edge pieces adapted to form a structure for holding the edge of a flexible material. The edge pieces may be configured in a framework so that the material covers a desired support surface. One edge piece is a molding strip that has a mounting base and upwardly extending connecting wall and a raised support wall in spaced parallel relation to the base. A lip extends upwardly from the base, spaced from the connecting wall, and a retaining wall extends upwardly from the base between the lip and the connecting wall, and, with the connecting wall, forms a narrow groove. A mating locking member defines a moveable profile that is received by the molding element and has a top wall, a first, downwardly depending side wall that is positioned in the groove to trap the material edge therein, and a second downwardly depending side wall that has a locking structure configured to engage the lip of the molding element. A second locking structure may be formed between the groove and the first side wall. Cooperating, internal molding elements may be used within the framework and include second molding elements and second locking members that may simultaneously secure two edges of flexible material sections.
