Abstract (en)

A fixing means is provided for a panel (16) or the like to close off a substantially vertical gap between two substantially horizontal surfaces. The means comprises at least two elongate upright members (14) transversely spaced apart or a frame (10) for mounting substantially vertically inward of the side edges of a corresponding panel (16) to be fitted. Each upright member (14) has at least one flat face (15) to abut against the Inside face of the panel (16) and each upright member (14) or the frame (10) has at its bottom end a height-adjustable element (18) with a foot (19) to be lower surface-engagable. The other upper end is securable under the upper surface. The foot (19) of each upright member (14) is for urging against the lower surface with a compressible pad (22) positioned therebetween. The flat face (15) of each upright member facing outwards and having at least two vertically-spaced contact zones (24) against which a corresponding number of co-operating contact zones(24) similarly positioned on an inside face of the panel (16) are matable. <IMAGE>
