Disclosed is a system (100) for mounting a partition (102) as used as part of a guard or hand rail. The system includes a shoe (104) with a slot for receiving an edge (108) of the partition and an isolator (118) that fits within the slot between the partition and a portion of the slot. A clamp assembly (122) fits within the slot opposite the first isolator. The clamp assembly includes upper (126) and lower (130) blocks and, optionally, a center block (128). Surfaces of the blocks are angled with respect to each other so that drawing the upper and lower blocks toward each other will urge one of the blocks in one direction and the other block or blocks in the opposite direction. The blocks include engagement surfaces which engage a side wall of the slot and a side of the partition to selectively and releasably hold the partition within the slot.
