A rain-screen siding system for buildings, including clips to support siding boards parallel with a flat surface of a building wall structure but spaced apart from the building wall to allow air to circulate between the building wall structure and the siding boards. The clips include paired, opposed channels and the siding boards have tongues that fit into the channels. Drainage grooves are defined in the clips. Bottom support members may extend horizontally to support the siding boards at the bottom of the rain screen siding. Corner closing members are provided to protect end faces of siding boards at an exterior corner of a building wall.

An apparatus and method for a wall panel system having a plurality of wall panels arranged within a framework. The wall panels may include a plurality of retention devices releasably engaging the framework to position the wall panels relative to the wall panel system. One or more of the retention devices may be actuated to engage and disengage from the framework. The wall panel system may include trim releasably engaging the framework.

A system for mounting plurality of panels includes a carrier part for receiving and supporting the panels at intervals along the length, and a locking strip. The carrier part and the locking strip can be mounted to each other to couple the locking strip relative to the carrier part in a locked position with an elongate edge of the locking strip engaging with the panels.

A system for mounting wall panels to an existing wall, including a plurality of fastening extrusions, each fastening extrusion including a base section adapted to be secured to the existing wall, at least one retaining wall extending at an angle from the base section, and a holding member on each retaining wall for holding one end of a wall panel to a respective the fastening extrusion; and wherein at least some adjacent retaining walls have different heights from each other so as to impart a three-dimensional appearance to the wall panels mounted to the existing wall.

The present invention relates to a lamella front surface system (1), comprising at least one lamella (2), at least two metal mounting elements (3) each having a mounting axis, configured to be attached to a support (4), e.g. the face of a building, each of the metal mounting elements comprising mounting side (6) abutting the face in its mounted position, an interfacing side (7) arranged opposite the mounting side, the interfacing side comprising attachment means (8), wherein the lamella front surface system further comprises a fixation element (5) having a longitudinal extension (FA) and having a body (9) having a first side (10) comprising interfacing means (12, 13) configured to be connected with the attachment means, and a second side (11) configured to support the lamella in a position which is substantially perpendicular to the mounting axis of the metal mounting elements, and wherein the lamella is made from a non-metal material. The present invention also relates to use of the lamella front surface system according to the present invention.

The present invention provides a mounting system for a panel, comprising: a clip, a sub-frame, a spacer and a resilient washer, wherein the clip and sub-frame are secured by a screw going through a round hole of the clip, the wing and a hole of the sub-frame. The mounting clip has the following characteristics: reducing the number of clips because clips may be used for both horizontal and vertical mountings of the ceramic panel; the clips are not exposed; the resilient contact between the clips and panels; panels are not vulnerable to come off; the clips can satisfy the separate mounting and removal for panels.

An extrusion profile bracket for mounting panels comprises a mounting base, a first support leg extending from the mounting base, and a brace extending from the mounting base and spaced apart from the first support leg. The first support leg has a plurality of first support leg panel gripping teeth extending from the first support leg toward the brace and terminates in a first support foot including a portion extending oppositely to the first support leg panel gripping teeth and away from the brace. The first support foot has a first locking heel extending toward the brace and extending beyond termini of the first support leg panel gripping teeth. The brace has a plurality of brace first panel gripping teeth extending toward the first support leg panel gripping teeth, and the first support leg panel gripping teeth and the brace first gripping teeth are arranged in opposition to one another.

A cladding system for a wall includes a plurality of panels (3), each with first and second longitudinal edges blocked to each other and to the wall by a respective plurality of fastenings (5, 7). Removable fastening means (5) include a releasable clamping member (23) movable with respect to corresponding locking means (21) and movably joinable thereto so as to fix to the wall a concave housing means (15) of the first longitudinal edge (11) of a panel (3) that contains a first rib means (17) of the second longitudinal edge (13) of the other panel (3), the first rib being inserted in the concave housing means. The release of the releasable clamping members (23) from the respective locking means (21) of the plurality of removable fastening means (5) of the edges (11, 13) of the two adjacent panels (3) allows to release said edges (11, 13).

An improved apparatus for mounting first and second panels to a faade utilizing a base fixed to the faade. The base member mates with a fastener and holds a pair of supports outwardly from the base member. The first and second panels mount to the pair of supports and also hold a reveal strip located beneath a gap between the first and second panels.

A system for mounting wall panels to an existing wall, including a plurality of fastening extrusions, each fastening extrusion including a base section adapted to be secured to the existing wall, at least one retaining wall extending at an angle from the base section, and a holding member on each retaining wall for holding one end of a wall panel to a respective the fastening extrusion; and wherein at least some adjacent retaining walls have different heights from each other so as to impart a three-dimensional appearance to the wall panels mounted to the existing wall.
