Abstract: A winged insert holds a magnet and includes a flat base having two sides with wings that have U-shape or V-shape. Each side's wing extends off the side of the base in a first direction and then curves back at an outward-facing angle. The wings act similar to barbs or arrow heads to allow the insert to be inserted into a slot on a trim or decking board while preventing the insert from being removed from the slot after insertion. The winged insert may include alignment holes or pins for positioning a removable spacer adjacent the winged insert. The spacer may include a tray or other sidewalls on an opposite side for holding a magnetic conductor. For trim applications, the conductor may be affixed to a wall during an installation process before removing the spacer. For flooring applications, the conductor may be a top metal surface of a joist clip.

Abstract: A magnetic attachment assembly for attaching a first object to a second object includes a first and second ferromagnetic devices possessing an attractive magnetic property pulling each toward one another. The first ferromagnetic device is attached to the first object and an adhesive layer on the second ferromagnetic device is for attaching the second ferromagnetic device to the second object. A removable separator is initially positioned intermediate the first ferromagnetic device and the second ferromagnetic device and is frictionally held in place prior to attachment of the second ferromagnetic device to the second object. During installation, the user pushes the attachment assembly onto the second object, pulls the first ferromagnetic device away from the second ferromagnetic device, removes the separator, and then pushes the first ferromagnetic device back to the second ferromagnetic device thereby attaching the first object to the second object.
