Abstract
A support clip for supporting ceiling panels in a suspended ceiling includes a top portion connected to and arranged substantially perpendicular to a front portion. A pair of juxtaposed prongs extend rearwardly from a bottom edge of the front portion below the top portion for insertion into an edge of a ceiling panel. A pair of laterally spaced tabs extend forwardly from the bottom edge of the front portion in an opposite direction from the prongs but in generally the same plane as the prongs. The tabs are positioned to rest on a wall molding which is attached to a wall of a building. A downwardly projecting barb is formed on the top portion for penetrating an upper surface of a ceiling panel.
