ABSTRACT:
A universal base for modular wall panels of various thicknesses includes two spaced-apart members with a bracket rotatably disposed therebetween. The members are coupled to a pair of legs which support a threaded member for supporting a wall panel thereon. A wiring harness may be mounted to the rotatable brackets from either side of the wall panel. The vertical location of the support for the wall panel and the spaced-apart members and bracket may be varied independently of each other. Accordingly, the vertical location of the wall panel and the vertical location of the wiring harness may be varied independently of each other. The spaced-apart members further include an arrangement for attaching a cover plate thereto. The top portion of the cover plate is flexible and inwardly biased so as to accommodate wall panels of varying thicknesses.
