Abstract

A sheet metal face for a structural panel has at least one edge portion bent and folded to define a recessed double-thickness flange. A plurality of longitudinally-spaced slots in the flange are used for attaching mounting members having upwardly facing hooking projections receivable in a hook pocket integral with a wall-hanging structural unit. A non-metallic protector strip may be interposed between the hooking projections and hook pocket. The structural unit has bottom and rear sheet metal panels with an integral assembly flange and assembly hook. A load bar assembly may be interposed between the mounting members and the structural unit.
