A corner hardware kit for completing a frame corner that is defined by a first frame element and a second frame element includes a corner bracket having a first portion for attachment to the first frame element and a second portion for attachment to the second frame element. The corner bracket has an upstanding foot that protrudes rearwardly therefrom and carries a coupling member at a distal end thereof. The kit also includes an elastic corner insert that has a curved outer surface and has a pair of first coupling elements for mating to a pair of second coupling elements that are associated with the first and second frame elements to complete the corner of the frame.

A modular wall overlay system for installation on a support surface includes a frame; and a cover securely retained on the frame by a tensioning system whereby the cover is free of direct attachment to the frame but rather is retained under tension on the frame by the tensioning system. The frame includes a plurality of frame pieces and a plurality of corner brackets. The frame pieces are directly coupled to respective corner brackets but are free of direct coupling to one another.

A modular wall overlay system for installation on a support surface includes a frame; a cover that is securely, yet detachably, retained on and along a front face of the frame by a tensioning mechanism that is configured to tension the cover; and elastic corner inserts that are disposed in corners of the frame and include curved outer surfaces that are configured to permit the cover to be stretched over the elastic corner inserts creating radiused corners and preventing tearing of the cover in corners thereof when the cover is tensioned by the tensioning mechanism.

A modular wall overlay system for installation on a support surface includes an outer frame having a pair of opposing ends and a pair of opposing sides and a customizable inner frame that is coupled to the outer frame. The inner frame includes a plurality of transverse supports that extend between the opposing sides and a plurality of longitudinal supports that extend between the opposing ends. The longitudinal supports and the transverse supports lie in a common plane defined within the outer frame. The system further includes a cover that is securely retained on the outer frame.

There is described a shower enclosure and kit of walls therefor. The kit of decorative wall panels comprise a first wall panel including a front face, the front face of the first wall panel defining a first decorative pattern and including a relief element, a second wall panel including a front face, the front face of the second wall panel defining a second decorative pattern, and a connecting assembly for connecting the first wall panel adjacent to the second wall panel. The first decorative pattern of the first wall panel and the second decorative pattern of the second wall panel are configured to counteract a visual distortion caused by the relief element of the first wall panel when the first wall panel is adjacent to the second wall panel.

A rodent repelling siding for repelling rodents from entering a structure includes a siding housing having a wall side, a top side, a front side, and a bottom side forming an inner compartment. The front side has a plurality of vent slots extending through to the inner compartment. The wall side s configured to be coupled to an outside wall of a structure with the bottom side disposed on the ground. An absorbent insert is coupled within the inner compartment. The absorbent insert is configured to absorb a chemical repellant and release a repellant odor therefrom. The repellant odor passes through the plurality of vent slots.

The disclosed subject matter relates to an apparatus for detachable fastening of a glass pane to a substructure, comprising a block strip that is subdivided into a block piece to block the glass pane on one of its peripheral sides and a holding piece to lie against the substructure, the block strip having at least one opening for fastening means for detachable fastening of the block strip to the substructure, and a bonding strip, an outer surface of which is bondable with one side of the glass pane, wherein the holding piece has a projection and the bonding strip engages the projection on the side facing away from the block piece when the glass pane is in the fastened state.

A decorative material having first and second gloss-adjusting layers, one with lower gloss contains a matting agent having an average particle diameter of 6.0 m or more and 15.0 m or less. That is, the average particle diameter of the matting agent in the gloss-adjusting layer with lower gloss, i.e., the gloss-adjusting layer whose scratch resistance is likely to be low, is set within an optimal range in which the gloss-adjusting layer has improved or even excellent scratch resistance and designability.
