  • Patent number: 5752356
    Abstract: A detachable wall trim having an elongated section of decorative wall trim with a coextending recess channel on the back face. Two or more spaced fastener clips are received in the channel. These clips are formed of one piece plates having spaced screws for holding them or securing them within the channel on the back face of the trim. A key-hole shaped screw head retaining slot is provided in each of these plates and each key-hole slot has a screw head access opening with a narrower screw shaft slot extending therefrom for slidably receiving a screw shaft without permitting passage of the screw head through the screw shaft slot. The wall screws are first fastened to the wall and properly aligned with the clips and then the screw heads extending from the wall are permitted to sufficiently extend from the wall so that they pass through the key hole slots to retain the trim on the wall where desired. These clips are adapted for 360.degree.
