The subject of the invention is a fixing system for covering elements which allows the fixing of covering elements into the claws of the supporting spine by wedging them into one another, so that a permanent surface is created, meaning that the covering elements could be removed later only be means of mechanical destruction. The fixing system according to the invention consisting of covering elements that have fixing and positioning lugs attached to the claws of L and U profiled supporting spines. It is characterised by that, covering elements (3), that are provided with fixing lug (6), positioning lug (7) and tensioning shoulder (23), are fixed with in a process advancing upwards into claws (10), which are provided with stepped recess containing stop shoulder (13) at its top, lower groove (17) at its lower part and upper groove (18), that are formed at equal distances on the spine element (9) of the supporting spine (2), so that the positioning lug (7) of one of the covering elements (3) is placed fully into the lower groove (17) of the stepped recess (15) of one of the claws (10), then the other end of the covering element (3) is snapped into the upper groove (18) in the stepped recess (15) of the claw (10) located at a lower position with the help of its fixing lug (6), so that the tensioning shoulder (23) of the covering element (3) leans against the stop shoulder (13) formed at the upper part of claw (10) located just below the upper claw (10), then the positioning lug (7) of the next covering elements (3) is placed fully into the lower groove (17) of the stepped recess (15) of the appropriate claws (10), then the other end of the covering element (3) is snapped in place with the help of its fixing lug (6) into the upper groove (18) of stepped recess (15) of a claw (10), in the lower groove (17) of the stepped recess (15) of which the positioning lug (7) in the covering element (3) at a lower position was already placed.
