The plate member has a recess formed therein for receiving a portion of the panel and a bore extending between the inner face and the outer face along an axis at an acute angle to the outer face. A clamping structure extends into the recess in the plate member for retaining a portion of the panel therein. A fastening element extends through the bore in the plate member into a corresponding slot in the outer frame to interconnect the plate member to the outer frame.
