Abstract
The specification discloses a partition system in which any gap between an end partition and an existing wall is concealed by a combination rigid channel and flexible cover. The rigid channel embraces and provides firm anchorage for the end of the partition and a flexible cover on each side of said channel conceals the rigid channel and any gap between the partition and a fixed wall from view. Yet, the flexible cover can be deflected to provide access to hanger bracket slots or the like which might be located at the end of the partition.
