Abstract
Abstract A demountable partition system consists of metal shapes such as aluminum extrusions and wall board panels forming closed and open base rail height and cornice height and ceiling height partitions wherein the wall board panels are supported and retained by the metal shapes so as to be held in spaced relation with their edges enclosed in attractively configured trim. Certain of the metal shapes employed as trim incorporate glazing grooves simplifying glass installation and others include door stops forming door frames and the like.
