The FLAT Auto Adjust SX26 is an aluminium dining table base designed with two practical features that address common front-of-house challenges: automatic self-levelling on uneven floors, and a flip-top mechanism that allows tables to be folded and stored compactly when not in use.

The base uses FLAT's PAD (Patented Actuator Device), a hydraulic self-stabilising system that adjusts automatically when the base is placed or moved. In practice, this means the table settles firmly on uneven or slightly sloped surfaces without any manual adjustment from staff — a genuine operational advantage in older venues, outdoor terraces, or any space where the floor is not perfectly level. There is no need to hunt for folded card or rubber wedges, and the table stays stable under normal dining use.

The flip-top mechanism is well suited to venues that need to reconfigure or clear the dining area at the end of service. Tables can be folded and stored against a wall or in a storeroom, reducing the space required overnight or between events.

Self-levels automatically on uneven or sloped surfaces via hydraulic PAD technology
Flip-top mechanism allows compact upright storage between service periods
Lightweight aluminium construction at 5.2kg makes repositioning straightforward
Suitable for indoor and outdoor use in hospitality environments
Compatible with square and round table tops up to 800mm across

At 5.2kg, the base is light enough for a single staff member to move and store without difficulty. The aluminium build holds up well in everyday front-of-house use, though operators should note this is a dining-height base and is not suited to bar or counter-height applications without the appropriate top plate height.

This base works well for restaurants, cafes, bars, and event spaces that deal with imperfect floor conditions or need flexible table layouts. It is particularly useful where tables are regularly moved, stored, or reconfigured between covers. For higher-volume or heavier-duty environments, a more robust base specification may be worth considering.

If you are fitting out a new dining space or replacing existing bases across multiple tables, it is worth discussing your floor conditions and table-top sizes with us before ordering — small details can affect which specification works best for your setup.

Frequently asked questions

How does the self-levelling work and does it require any adjustment during service?

The PAD (Patented Actuator Device) is a hydraulic mechanism built into the base that automatically compensates for surface irregularities when the table is placed. Once set down, it stabilises without any manual input from staff, and re-stabilises if the table is moved to a different position on the floor.

What size table tops will this base support?

The SX26 is compatible with square and round table tops up to 800mm in diameter or width. If you are using larger tops or particularly heavy table top materials such as thick stone or solid hardwood, it is worth checking the load rating with us before committing to this base.

Is this base suited to outdoor use, and will the aluminium hold up over time?

Yes, the SX26 is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Aluminium is a practical choice for outdoor hospitality settings as it does not rust, though as with any outdoor furniture component, exposure to harsh weather over extended periods will have some effect on finish and mechanism longevity.
