Base Plate - Rectangle

By using a heavy-duty rectangular mounting plate to surface-mount your posts to concrete footings or a timber deck, you create a far more durable, easily maintainable structure. Surface mounting also allows you to make precise adjustments during installation to ensure perfectly level posts.

Our standard range is engineered to suit a wide variety of structural layouts. Some of our common rectangular dimensions include:

• 100mm x 80mm x 10mm
• 120mm x 50mm x 10mm
• 150mm x 50mm x 10mm
• 150mm x 100mm x 10mm

To pick the right size, measure the external dimensions of your post to ensure it sits cleanly on the plate with sufficient room for the weld. Next, evaluate your substrate to ensure your pre-drilled fixing holes will align safely with the concrete edge or timber sub-frame without splitting the material.

A rectangular mounting plate is typically used when a standard square plate would overhang the mounting surface or cause an obstruction. It is ideal for installations where the anchoring space is narrow, such as thin retaining walls, along the edges of timber decks, or adjacent to existing walls. It is the perfect choice whenever you need to mount a slimline post flush against a boundary line.

Yes. Because we control the entire manufacturing process on our own CNC machining centres in Australia, we can easily tailor our base plates to your specific design. Whether you require distinct hole configurations, non-standard dimensions, or different plate thicknesses, such as 6mm or 8mm, our fabrication team can manufacture a precise solution tailored to your custom specifications.

Hand-cutting or using manual tools to fabricate base plates often results in uneven edges, burrs, and slightly misaligned mounting holes. Our CNC-machined plates offer true right angles and perfectly flat surfaces, which makes your welding process fast and clean. Furthermore, every single plate is completely identical, ensuring consistent, high-quality results across your entire project.
