Abstract

A leveling assembly for leveling a bottom edge of an interior wall panel includes an elongate floor channel secured to the floor, a floor rail at least partially disposed with the floor channel, at least one panel support positioned within the floor rail for supporting the bottom edge of the interior wall panel, and at least one leveler at least partially located within the floor rail. The levelers each include a head removably secured to the floor channel, a threaded adjustment rod projecting from the head, and a rail support having a collar and support shoulder extending outwardly from the collar. The collar passes through an aperture defined in a horizontal portion of the floor rail and is threadedly engaged with the adjustment rod. The support shoulder supports the floor rail. The adjustment rod is rotated to vary a vertical distance between the floor rail and the floor channel.
