Abstract

A self secured housing includes a frame with openings, a first cover disposed on a first side of the frame and mechanically coupled to a plurality of semi flexible first fingers that are arranged for disposal in the openings with some of the semi flexible first fingers having a concave interlocking detail, and a second cover disposed on a second side of the frame and mechanically coupled to a plurality of semi flexible second fingers that are similarly arranged for disposal in the openings. The second fingers are further arranged to urge a corresponding one of the first fingers toward a side of the opening and engage the convex interlocking detail with the concave interlocking detail, thereby securing the frame between the first cover and the second cover.
