FLAT Auto Adjust SX26 EP Bar Height Flip Top Table Base

The FLAT Auto Adjust SX26 is an aluminium bar height table base designed for commercial hospitality environments where floor conditions are imperfect and space efficiency during non-service hours matters. It combines a flip-top mechanism with self-stabilising hydraulic feet, making it a practical choice for venues that need to reconfigure or clear their floor quickly and reliably.

The SX26 uses FLAT's PAD system — a patented hydraulic actuator built into the base — which automatically levels the table on uneven or undulating floors without any manual adjustment from staff. This happens passively as the table is set down, which in a busy service environment removes a small but persistent operational frustration. The base also aligns automatically when tables are pushed together, which helps operators run consistent row layouts without individually checking each table.

The EP (Extra Protection) coating is applied over the aluminium construction to resist corrosion in outdoor settings and coastal environments where salt air would quickly degrade a standard finish. This makes the SX26 a sound choice for terraces, rooftop spaces, or seaside venues that need furniture capable of staying outdoors for extended periods.

• Flip-top mechanism enables fast, compact storage between services
• Self-levelling feet remove the need for staff to check or adjust tables
• EP coating provides long-term corrosion resistance in outdoor and coastal use
• Aluminium construction keeps the base manageable to lift and reposition
• Automatic alignment when tables are grouped simplifies room layouts

Installation is straightforward — the base accepts a standard top plate connection and is compatible with square tops up to 650mm and round tops up to 750mm in diameter. No fixings to the floor are required, which suits venues with restrictions on floor penetrations. It is worth confirming your intended tabletop size and shape before ordering to ensure compatibility.

The SX26 is well suited to bars, rooftop terraces, seaside restaurants, and any venue where bar height seating is used alongside regular floor reconfigurations. For indoor venues with level floors and no storage constraints, a fixed-height base may offer a simpler and more cost-effective solution. Where a venue operates at very high volume and needs maximum robustness, it is worth discussing whether a heavier-duty option would better fit the demands of the site.
