Abstract: Embodiments of an expansion joint are provided. The expansion joint is configured to cover a gap between a first architectural surface and a second architectural surface. The expansion joint includes a panel having a first surface and a second surface in which the second surface is opposite the first surface. When the panel covers the gap, the panel is magnetically connected to both of the first architectural surface or the second architectural surface. In specific embodiments, at least one of the magnetic structures that magnetically connect the panel to both of the first architectural surface or the second architectural surface is allowed to move in response to movement of the panel. In more specific embodiments, the movement of the magnetic structure is a tilting movement.

Abstract: A handrail kit that includes a cover, a first endcap, a second endcap, and a support member is provided. The support member includes a longitudinal axis, a first end along the longitudinal axis, a second end along the longitudinal axis, a first lateral side, a second lateral side, a first longitudinal side, and a second longitudinal side. The first lateral side of the support member is configured to be secured directly against a mounting surface. The first endcap is configured to mate with the first end of the support member and the second endcap is configured to mate with the second end of the support member. The cover is configured to be placed over the second lateral side of the support member and to engage the first longitudinal side and the second longitudinal side of the support member.

Abstract: Embodiments of an end tip configured to travel in a track of a shade system are disclosed. The end tip includes a body portion having a diameter and including a first section and a second section. The first section has a head portion and is made of a first material having a first hardness, and the second section is made of a second material having a second hardness. The head portion has a width that is wider than the diameter of the body portion, and the first hardness is higher than the second hardness. Also disclosed is a shade system including first and second tracks, a shade, and end tips. The first and second sections of the end tips are configured to separate when a threshold load is applied to the end tips.

Abstract: Embodiments of an elevator mounting assembly are provided. The elevator mounting assembly includes an elevator wall panel that is coupled to an elevator car wall by a hanger, specifically a side mount hanger. The hanger includes a lower wall that is spaced laterally apart from the elevator wall panel. At least a portion of the lower wall is in lateral alignment with the elevator wall panel. An intermediate wall extends from the lower wall in a direction toward the elevator car wall. Further, an upper wall extends from the intermediate wall, such that the upper wall is positioned nearer than the lower wall to the elevator car wall. The upper wall is coupled to the elevator car wall at a location above the elevator wall panel. Additionally, an elevator ceiling panel is coupled to the lower wall. In specific embodiments, the upper wall includes a plurality of wall mounting channels.

Abstract: A drain assembly for providing a drain passage for fluid flow from a surface to the drainpipe of a plumbing system. The surface would typically be that of a structure such as that of a floor, a floor of a shower or floor of a bathtub. The drain assembly includes a multi-channel cove wherein each flow channel is configured or curved in such a way to prevent the passage of a ligation (e.g., wire, cord, or rope) through the channels to allow the ligation to be tied to the cover.

Abstract: A wall panel installation method, assembly, system and kit are provided. The wall panel is installed and held to an existing building structure with the combination of a support plate secured to the building wall, fastening elements adhered to the wall panel and corresponding fastening elements adhered to respective support plates. When the wall panel is in position, the fastening elements are brought into contact to engage each other and hold the wall panel in position relative to the building structure/wall.

Abstract: Embodiments of an expansion joint are provided. The expansion joint is configured to cover a gap between a first architectural surface and a second architectural surface. The expansion joint includes a panel having a first surface and a second surface in which the second surface is opposite the first surface. When the panel covers the gap, the panel is magnetically connected to both of the first architectural surface or the second architectural surface. The expansion joint may also a tether to connect the panel to the architectural surfaces when the panel becomes dislodged.

Abstract: Embodiments of a shade system are provided. The shade system includes a first track assembly, a second track assembly, a shade, and a bottom rail. The track assemblies include tracks having an interior surface defined by a front wall, a rear wall, a sidewall, and two partitions. One of the partitions extends from the front wall, and the other of the partitions extends from the rear wall. A gap is provided between the two partitions. The track assemblies also include rods disposed within the tracks that do not contact the interior surfaces. The shade has outer loops wrapped around each rod and a bottom loop wrapped around the bottom rail. The bottom rail is connected to idler ends having loop portions around each respective rod. The bottom rail is disposed between the partitions. The idler ends are disposed within the tracks.

Abstract: A system for attaching a flexible expansion joint to the surface of a building such as the floor of a building. The system for attaching the joint is configured to secure the joint and provide, in effect, a form up to which a top coat of material such as concrete or asphalt can applied over an existing floor structure. The system provides a universal base unit upon which common extension units can be attached and stacked to vary the height of the form for the surface coat.

Abstract: An expansion joint cover plate assembly for covering a gap between first and second sections of a building formation such as wall, floor or ceiling of a building. The assembly includes a cover plate, a support structure for supporting the plate relative to the building formation and a spring biasing structure for holding the plate against the support structure.
