CT2072 Bar-Height Compact Base

The FLAT Tech CT2072 is a Bar-Height Compact Base built for busy bar sections that need stable tops and quick resets. This Bar-Height Compact Base uses FLAT Equalizers on a 30 inch by 30 inch footprint to settle on uneven floors and help joined tabletops meet at the same height. With a 3 inch round column and a 13 inch by 13 inch mounting plate, the base supports common bar-size rounds and small rectangles. Finally, the cast iron frame and textured finish stand up to daily service and frequent cleaning.

At a Glance

Type: Bar-height cross base. Spread: 30 inch × 30 inch. Column: 3 inch round. Mounting plate: 13 inch × 13 inch. Finish: Textured black. Leveling: FLAT Equalizers. Best for: Tabletops up to about 36 inch round or square.

Why Choose a Bar-Height Compact Base

This model balances small footprint with steady support in tight layouts. First, the Equalizer feet adjust under light pressure so the top sits firm. Next, when you push tables together for groups, edges meet more evenly for smooth service. Then, the compact spread preserves aisle flow and chair clearance. As a result, staff spend less time fixing wobble and more time serving guests.

Size and Compatibility

Footprint: 30 inches × 30 inches cross base
Column: 3 inches round
Mounting plate: 13 inches × 13 inches
Recommended tabletop: up to ~36 inches round or square

For dense hardwoods or thick custom builds, verify total mass before install. If you need the same stability with a wider span, compare CT2068. For larger bar-height footprints, review CT2070. To explore an alternate column or plate style, see CT2087 and the versatile CT2071. If you are planning oversized tops, start with our guide on large restaurant tabletops.

Use Cases

Bar-height two-tops and small four-tops in compact sections
Older spaces where floors vary slightly between areas
Layouts that join small tables for larger parties

Plan your lineup by mixing spread sizes to match top dimensions across zones. For example, use CT2072 where space is tight, then step up to CT2068 in wider aisles. This simple approach keeps a consistent look and predictable stability through the room.

Installation and Setup Tips

First, center the 13 inch mounting plate under your tabletop and mark pilot holes. Next, drill with the correct bit for your material and secure the plate with approved fasteners. Then, place the table upright and press lightly on the edges so the feet settle and lock. Finally, slide the table into position and confirm all contact points meet the floor before service.

Pro Tip

Pre-mark join locations on the floor plan for common party sizes. Consistent marks help crews align tables fast and keep seams flush during peak hours.

Which Restaurant table bases are best for compact bar layouts?

A Bar-Height Compact Base keeps small bar tables steady and flush on floors that are not perfectly flat. For larger spans, compare CT2070 or the dining-height CT2068 to match size and service height.
