Abstract: A screening for separating a protected area has a plurality of vertical supports with removable panels between the supports. Upper attachment members on the supports have a vertical channel for slideably receiving a complementary attachment member on the panel. A hook on one attachment member engages a catch on the other to retain the attachment members together. The lower end of the panel is retained between parallel flanges on the vertical supports. A tool is provided to release the hook for removal of the panel from the vertical supports.

Abstract: A screening for separating a protected area from a more accessible area includes a plurality of vertical supports with panels retained between the supports. The upper or lower ends of the panel are retained on pivot pins while the end of the panel opposite the pivot pins is removably locked to the support. The locking structure includes a latch that can be released from a position outside the enclosure and a lock that is lockable and unlockable from inside the enclosure. When the lock is actuated, the latch cannot be unlatched until the lock is subsequently unlocked.

Abstract: A rack comprises at least one wire mesh panel comprising a first array of parallel wires and a second array of parallel wires, the wires of the first and second arrays being in transverse, angular relation and being bonded to each other at at least a substantial number of wire crossing points. The panel defines opposed, parallel side edges which are substantially defined by first individual wires of the first array. Third wires are respectively bonded to the panel and positioned parallel to and adjacent to the first individual wires of the first array. The third wires are spaced from the first individual wires by crossing wires of the second array. Retaining walls are defined by adjacent, upturned end portions of the first array of parallel wires and an end wire interconnecting the end portions, preferably extending from opposite ends of each wire mesh panel. A plurality of such wire mesh panels may be secured together at their opposed parallel edges by clamp members to provide a modular rack system.

Abstract: A partition for forming fencing, or cages for warehouses, repair shops and the like, typically comprises a plurality of spaced, vertical posts and at least one mesh wall vertically positioned between the spaced, vertical posts and attached to them. The mesh wall defines a horizontally extending portion extending substantially the length of the mesh wall, with the horizontally extending portion being integral with the mesh wall but bent into transverse relation with the remainder of the vertically positioned mesh wall. The horizontally extending portion stiffens the mesh wall. Preferably the mesh wall defines a pair of such horizontally extending portions, one at the top and one at the bottom of the mesh wall. Also, by this invention a pair of mesh walls may be attached to the vertical posts in vertical relation to each other, being attached to each other by connectors through the horizontally extending portions.
