A post for securing a panel, comprising:

• a base, having two faces which are substantially orthogonal with respect to each other, including:
• one face which is configured to be parallel to the plane of the panel, having a linear compression seal at its free end, and
• one face which is configured to be orthogonal to the plane of the panel,
• a flap, articulated with respect to the base at the free end of the face which is orthogonal to the plane of the panel, carrying a complementary linear compression seal at its end opposite to the articulation, the linear compression seals are configured to compress the panel between the base and the flap in the assembled state,
• a wedge, having an insert, inserted at the level of the articulation between the base and the flap in the assembled state which, when inserted, locks said articulation in a position clamping the panel,
• wherein the wedge comprises snap-fitting means, snap-fitted with the flap and/or the base when the wedge locks the articulation.
