POST MOUNTED STANCHION BASE STYLES
Magnetic Stanchion Base Mount
Magnetic stanchion base mounts eliminate the need for floor drilling. They adhere securely to most surfaces using heavy-duty VHB tape.
Our sleekest base mount yet.
Designed for easy, damage-free installation. Use VHB tape on smooth, hard floors or epoxy on rough surfaces to skip drilling altogether—or choose screws for a permanent setup.
Make the most of your space.
The compact base diameter lets you tighten lane widths and maximize linear queuing within the same footprint.
Adapt with ease.
Posts can be positioned in any direction after installation, giving you total flexibility to align belts and reconfigure queue lines whenever needed.
|
Smart design. Solid performance. Exclusive spring-loaded technology absorbs impact to keep posts securely attached to their floor plates. Three ultra-strong neodymium magnets hold posts upright and aligned during everyday use and low-to-medium impacts. Designed to integrate seamlessly across our base styles, a precision-cut hole in the base plate locks onto the post’s centering bolt, ensuring proper positioning all day long. Plus, beveled base edges reduce trip hazards when posts are removed. |

Mini-Socket® Base Mount
Patented Mini-Socket stanchion base mounts feature the smallest possible footprint, creating a sleek ‘baseless’ look. Installation takes as little as 15 minutes, with multiple socket lengths available to suit any flooring type.
Small Footprint. Big Impact.
Value-Driven Installation
Achieve a clean, modern look with economical installation. Compared to other permanent or semi-permanent stanchions, Mini-Socket bases install in about 10 minutes—saving both time and labor costs.
The minimal drill hole design makes these sockets a perfect fit for thinner flooring surfaces like cement, terrazzo, tile, and granite.
Each post features a compact yet durable bolt at the bottom, eliminating the need for bulky bases. When traffic increases, simply screw posts into the sockets and rotate up to 350° for quick belt alignment.
| Small in size, big on benefits.
The MINI-SOCKET requires just a 15/16″ diameter by 2″ deep hole, so the stanchion occupies only 2.5″ of floor space—the same as the post width, making it one of the most discreet base styles available. A built-in spring-loaded mechanism allows the post to flex up to 10° in any direction, absorbing bumps from carts, strollers, or accidental contact. When the post is removed, the socket and screw cap are no larger than a quarter. A protective nylon disc shields both the post and flooring from wear caused by movement. |
