Abstract
A device for adjusting wall or door panels without the need to remove or disassembly the panels from their panel frames. The device can adjust the distance of the in-fill panel from a stationary frame or trolley track. Multiple devices can be utilized and adjusted independently allowing for angle adjustment of the panel. The device includes an in-fill attachment a threaded fastener, two angled adjustment blocks, and a block keeper. The in-fill attachment includes inset angled pockets, a wedge like portion, and an in-fill receiving portion. As the threaded fastener is turned, the angled sides of the two angled adjustment blocks slide along the angle pockets and move the in-fill attachment either toward or away from the panel frame thereby also moving the panel toward or away from the panel frame.
