The mounting block has a body which conforms in size and shape to the aperture and two ledges which provide ledge retaining surfaces. The mounting block also has two rectilinear notches in the body which expose notch surfaces which are in parallel spaced apart relationship with the ledge retention surfaces. The mounting block is inserted into the aperture and rotated 90 degrees of lock the mounting block in its retention position. In the retention position, the panel is captured between the ledge retention surfaces and the notch surfaces. Thus retained in the aperture, the mounting block is suitable for supporting loads or providing attachment points for screws or other fasteners.
