FLAT Auto Adjust KX36 Dining Table Base | Cast Iron

The FLAT Auto-Adjust KX36 is a cast iron dining table base designed to accommodate large table tops while actively compensating for uneven floor surfaces. At the centre of the design is FLAT's PAD system — a patented hydraulic actuator device built into the base that automatically levels and stabilises the table whenever it is placed or repositioned. This is a mechanical self-levelling solution, not a manual screw-adjust, which distinguishes it from standard pedestal bases.

In a busy front-of-house environment, an unstable table is a genuine operational problem — it disrupts service, irritates customers, and often requires floor wedges or folded card as a workaround. The KX36 removes that entirely. The PAD mechanism responds automatically, so the table stabilises without any intervention from staff. This is particularly useful in older buildings, converted premises, tiled dining rooms, or any venue where the floor is not perfectly level throughout.

The oversized top plate is proportioned to support larger table tops — suitable for square tops up to 1200mm and round tops up to 1500mm — making the KX36 a practical choice for venues that configure tables for groups rather than covers of two. The four-inch post provides a stable column for that extra top plate area.

• Automatic hydraulic self-levelling — no manual adjustment required by staff
• Suitable for large-format table tops, including extended round configurations
• Well suited to venues with uneven, tiled, or naturally varied floor surfaces
• Tables can be repositioned and realigned without re-levelling manually
• Cast iron construction provides the weight and stability expected in commercial settings

At 20.5kg, this is a substantial base. That weight contributes to stability under larger tops, but it is worth considering when planning layout changes or deep cleans. The base pairs with a wide range of standard and custom table tops, though it is worth confirming top size and fixing compatibility before ordering.

The KX36 is best suited to restaurants, bars, hotel dining rooms, and event venues where floor levelness varies and a consistently stable dining experience matters. For smaller table tops or tighter budgets, a standard fixed-post base may be sufficient. For high-density layouts where reconfiguration is frequent, the auto-adjust mechanism becomes particularly valuable.

If you are unsure whether the KX36 is the right specification for your tables and floor conditions, the team is happy to talk it through before you place an order.
