Abstract

A modular wall panel system including a series of wall panels connectable to each other. Each of the wall panels is formed from a support frame having a pair of spaced vertical posts and an upper header and a lower sill extending between the vertical posts. The lower sill is received within attachment notches formed in each of the vertical posts near the bottom end of each post. The attachment notches are spaced along the length of the vertical post such that the position of the sill can be adjusted. The lower sill includes a trim channel that receives the bottom of a tile mounted to the support frame. A top cap is attached to the header and engages a top end of the tile to aid in retaining the tile on the support frame. The tile may be a segmented tile having a lower portion and an upper portion joined to each other by a segmented trim channel. The segmented trim channel between the upper and lower portions is not connected to the support frame. Each panel can receive a stacking section to extend the height of the panel. The stacking section includes a pair of shortened vertical posts and a header. The stacking section is secured to the support frame through a pair of spaced blades. The lower edge of each panel can be elevated above the floor and the trim panel supported beneath the panels to create an enclosed raceway.
