Abstract
A partition construction includes a partition frame including a pair of leveling members located along a bottom of the partition frame, the leveling members each including downwardly disposed end sections having an interlock recess therein. A floor channel defines a floor-engaging wall and a secondary wall spaced above the floor-engaging wall. The secondary wall includes key hole apertures each having a large end and a small end, the large end being adapted to vertically receive the end section of an associated one of the leveling members and further the small end being adapted to horizontally receive the end section of the associated one leveling member. The secondary wall includes marginal material around the small end of the key hole apertures for interlockingly engaging the interlock recess to capture the associated one leveling member therein.
