Bolt-Down Base Plate for Flex Aluminum Post

No, this base plate is only compatible with FLEX aluminum posts from our range. It cannot be used with other types of posts such as T-posts, Tempo posts, or other rigid fence models. Its 70x120x10mm dimensions and mounting system are specifically designed to fit FLEX posts only.

Place the base plate on your surface (such as a low wall or concrete slab), mark the drilling points, and drill holes using the correct drill bit. Insert anchor bolts into the holes, secure the base plate with the appropriate screws, then slide the aluminum post into the base plate and tighten the set screws to keep everything stable.

To secure your FLEX aluminum post to the base plate, use the supplied hex head screws measuring 4.8 x 60 mm. These screws are designed with the right threading for aluminum and are long enough to fasten both the post and the plate securely.

A base plate offers a reliable alternative to traditional concrete setting by allowing you to anchor the post directly onto a solid surface. This method uses mechanical fasteners, such as anchor bolts, to secure the post firmly in place. It provides immediate stability without waiting for concrete to cure, as long as the base is properly anchored to an existing concrete or similarly hard surface.

This aluminum plate is virtually maintenance-free thanks to the natural properties of aluminum. Occasional cleaning with soapy water is enough to keep it looking good and remove any dirt. Aluminum naturally resists corrosion and weather, so it maintains its performance over time without the need for special treatments.

This base plate is designed for solid surfaces such as concrete, masonry walls, pavers, or wooden structures. It's ideal for patios, concrete walkways, and existing foundations. Avoid installing on soft surfaces like soil or asphalt, as they won't provide enough stability for your FLEX aluminum fence.
