MINI-SOCKET® Base Mount

Patented MINI-SOCKET stanchion base mounts have the smallest possible footprint, making posts appear ‘baseless’ and install in 15 min. Different length sockets are available to accommodate all flooring types.

About MINI-SOCKET Bases

Minimum footprint. Maximum style.

Economical installation. When comparing to other permanent/semi-permanent stanchions, save money on a simple and quick installation, which takes approximately 10 minutes, by greatly reducing labor costs.


Perfect for thinner flooring. Because the drilled hole is so small, mini sockets perfectly accommodate thinner floors, making them an ideal base mount for cement, terrazzo, tile and granite.


Handy, lightweight posts. Since posts have a tiny but mighty bolt attached to the bottom, there are no heavy bases to transport and store. When more queue lines are needed to accommodate high traffic, simply screw the post into the socket and rotate it within 350 degrees to align belts.

Smart Engineering

Being mini has mighty advantages.

The mini socket only requires a 15/16” x 2” deep hole drilled into the flooring, so the entire stanchion only takes up 2.5” (the width of the post) of floor space.

Internal spring-loaded assembly allows the post to lean about 10 degrees in any direction absorbing impact from accidental abuse, such as carts or unruly children.

When post is removed, socket and screw cap are roughly the size of a quarter. Nylon disc protects the end of the post and floor surface from getting damaged due to post movement.
