Abstract: The present invention relates to a frame profile assembly for frame pieces or the like, wherein a first profile member is mounted to extend along an outer side of the frame piece and a second profile member is mounted to extend along an inwardly directed side of the frame piece adjacent the outer side. In order to permit quick and simple mounting of frame profiles and to eliminate the need for screw or nail mounting holes in the profiles, the frame profile members have cooperating coupling portions which connect the profile members to each other and which, together with hooked end portions adapted to hook onto one or more frame brackets, provide the only means to retain the frame profile in position, and also form a downwardly directed shield.
