The fastener clip has an elongate smooth surfaced planar body, a counter-sunk fastener recess formed centrally within the body, a fastener opening defined within the recess and extending therethrough, and at least two spaced prongs formed as a part of the body which extend away from the body in a common direction. The fastener recess is sized and shaped to fit within an opening of a rigid mesh wall panel placed in registry with at least one structural fame member of a building. A threaded fastener is passed through the fastener opening and driven into the frame member to seat a bottom portion of the recess and a driving head of the fastener against the frame member. The security wall system includes at least one rigid mesh wall panel for being fastened to the at least one frame member of the building by a plurality of the described fastener clips, and may also include an exterior wall covering, for example gypsum board, fastened to the at least one frame member over the at least one mesh wall panel and the fastener clips. |
