1. A method of making a pre-assembled wall panel at a manufacturing site for installation between a floor of a room at a job site and a ceiling rail secured to a ceiling of the room at the job site, the method comprising: providing a panel having a top, a bottom, a left side, a right side, a front, and a back, the panel defining a top portion toward the top and a bottom portion toward the bottom of the panel, the panel being substantially frameless on at least the left and right sides of the panel;securing a bottom clamp assembly to the front and back of the panel at the bottom portion of the panel; andsecuring an adjustment mechanism to the bottom clamp assembly, the adjustment mechanism being configured to expand and contract in height to selectively modify a vertical position of the panel and a vertical position of the bottom clamp assembly. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising extending a bottom floor channel in a lengthwise direction between the right and left sides of the panel below the bottom of the panel and securing the adjustment mechanism to the bottom floor channel. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising extending a ceiling track along the top of the panel and securing the ceiling track to the top portion of the panel. 4. The method of claim 3, further comprising clamping the ceiling track to the top portion of the panel. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising shipping the pre-assembled wall panel from the manufacturing site. 6. A method of installing a wall panel system between a floor of a room and a ceiling rail extending along and secured to a ceiling of the room, the method comprising: inserting a ceiling track of a pre-assembled wall panel into the ceiling rail, the pre-assembled wall panel having a top and a bottom and including: a panel having a top, a bottom, a left side that is free of a vertical frame member, a right side that is free of a vertical frame member, a front, and a back, the panel defining a top portion toward the top of the panel and a bottom portion toward the bottom of the panel;an upper attachment assembly secured to the front of the panel and to the back of the panel at the top portion of the panel, the upper attachment assembly coupling the ceiling track to the top of the panel;an adjustment mechanism secured to the bottom portion of the panel by a lower attachment assembly secured to the front of the panel and to the back of the panel at the bottom portion of the panel;operatively resting the bottom of the pre-assembled wall panel against the floor; andadjusting a vertical position of the pre-assembled wall panel by actuating the adjustment mechanism, the ceiling track of the pre-assembled wall panel being constrained front to back by the ceiling rail while being able to slide up and down vertically as the vertical position of the pre-assembled wall panel is adjusted, wherein actuating the adjustment mechanism adjusts a vertical position of the panel and a vertical position of the lower clamp assembly. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein operatively resting the bottom portion of the pre-assembled wall panel against the floor includes operatively resting a bottom floor channel of the pre-assembled wall panel against the floor opposite the ceiling rail extending along the ceiling, the bottom floor channel receiving the adjustment mechanism and extending in a lengthwise direction below the bottom of the panel. 8. The method of claim 6, further comprising securing a connecting plate to the pre-assembled wall panel to align the bottom floor channel to an adjacent bottom floor channel of a second, adjacent pre-assembled wall panel that is substantially similar to the pre-assembled wall panel such that the pre-assembled wall panel is aligned to the second, adjacent pre-assembled wall panel. 9. The method of claim 6, wherein the adjustment mechanism is actuated manually. 10. The method of claim 6, wherein the adjustment mechanism is actuated using a power tool. 11. The method of claim 6, wherein actuating the adjustment mechanism includes driving a first end of a first leg and a first end of a second leg toward one another, a second end of the first leg being pivotably connected relative to a second end of the second leg. 12. The method of claim 6, wherein the adjustment mechanism includes a first substantially vertical member having inner threads and outer threads and a second substantially vertical member having outer threads, the second member being telescopically received in the first member, the method further comprising rotating the first and second members relative to one another to telescopically extend the second member from the first member. 13. A method of pre-assembling wall panels at a manufacturing site for installation between a floor of a room at a job site and a ceiling rail secured to a ceiling of the room, the method comprising: providing a panel having a top, a bottom, a left side that is frameless, a right side that is frameless, a front, and a back, the panel defining a top portion toward the top of the panel and a bottom portion toward the bottom of the panel;securing a lower clamp assembly to the front of the panel and the back of the panel at the bottom portion of the panel;extending a bottom floor channel below the bottom of the panel;securing a first height adjustment mechanism to the lower clamp assembly and the bottom floor channel, the first height adjustment mechanism being configured to selectively modify a vertical position of the panel and a vertical position of the lower clamp assembly; andsecuring a second height adjustment mechanism to the bottom floor channel, the second height adjustment mechanism being configured to selectively modify a vertical position of the panel independent of the first height adjustment mechanism. 14. The method of claim 13, further comprising coupling a ceiling track along the top of the panel, the ceiling track being configured to be removably inserted into the ceiling rail. 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising clamping the ceiling track to the top portion of the panel. 16. The method of claim 13, further comprising shipping a pre-assembled wall panel from the manufacturing site. 17. A method of installing a wall panel system between a floor of a room and a ceiling rail extending along and secured to a ceiling of the room, the method comprising: removably inserting a ceiling track of a pre-assembled wall panel into the ceiling rail, the pre-assembled wall panel including: a panel free from a frame extending around the panel to support the panel, the panel having a top, a bottom, a left side, a right side, a front, and a back, the panel defining a top portion and a bottom portion, the ceiling track being coupled to the panel at the top portion of the panel, the ceiling track extending in a lengthwise direction along the top portion of the panel;operatively resting a bottom floor channel of the pre-assembled wall panel against the floor of the room opposite the ceiling rail extending along the ceiling of the room, the bottom floor channel receiving a first height adjustment mechanism and a second height adjustment mechanism and extending along the bottom portion of the panel, the first height adjustment mechanism being secured to the bottom portion of the panel by a lower clamp assembly that is secured to the front and the back of the panel at the bottom portion of the panel; andadjusting a vertical position of the pre-assembled wall panel by independently actuating the first height adjustment mechanism and the second height adjustment mechanism, the ceiling track of the pre-assembled wall panel being constrained front to back by the ceiling rail while being able to slide up and down vertically as the vertical position of the pre-assembled wall panel is adjusted, wherein actuating the first height adjustment mechanism adjusts a vertical position of the panel and a vertical position of the lower clamp assembly. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein the first height adjustment mechanism is actuated manually. 19. The method of claim 17, wherein the first height adjustment mechanism is actuated using a power tool. 20. The method of claim 17, wherein actuating the first height adjustment mechanism includes driving a first end of a first leg and a first end of a second leg toward one another, a second end of the first leg being pivotably connected relative to a second end of the second leg. 21. The method of claim 17, wherein the first height adjustment mechanism includes a first substantially vertical member having inner threads and outer threads and a second substantially vertical member having outer threads, the second member being telescopically received in the first member, the method further comprising rotating the first and second members relative to one another to telescopically extend the second member from the first member.
