Cantilever Table Base
The Cantilever Table Base supports tabletops from the wall instead of the floor. This mount keeps booth seating open and the floor clear. It’s popular for modern banquette layouts and compact dining spaces. Additionally, it installs quickly and weighs only about ten pounds, making handling easier during setup or maintenance.
What It Is
The JICAT-15.5×21.5SM, sometimes labeled JICAT-15.5×21SM, is part of JI Bases’ cantilever family. This design eliminates the pedestal leg entirely. Instead, it anchors to the wall with a welded steel bracket and fixed 15.5-inch height. The 21-inch arm and 19.75-inch projection provide strong leverage support. The 2-inch steel-tube frame carries a black textured powder-coat finish. Because this base supports load through the wall, installers must confirm blocking or anchors are secure. Designers pair this model with compact tables where seating needs to stay clear beneath the top. For example, it complements end bases like CL2636281A when you need mixes of wall and floor support in one layout.
At a Glance
15.5″ high wall bracket. 21″ long arm. 19.75″ projection. 2″ steel tubing. Black textured finish. Supports tops up to 30″ long.
Size & Compatibility
This compact model fits tabletops up to around 30 inches in length. For larger tops, upgrade to the large version or add a pin leg for additional support. The cantilever pairs well with pedestal systems such as CL2036281A. Both let designers blend wall-mount seating with freestanding tables in the same project. Additionally, they all link back to our full table bases collection for broader compatibility. This creates visual consistency and simplifies parts sourcing across restaurant chains.
Use Cases
Use these bases in restaurant dining rooms, cafés, and hotels needing clean floor zones and flexible seating. The mount attaches to the wall side of a table, freeing floor space underneath. Guests enjoy easier entry, and cleaning crews move faster because there are fewer legs to navigate. Designers looking into layout trends often explore our restaurant table tops buyer’s guide to combine tops and bases effectively. With this base you get both form and commercial-grade strength in one package.
Design Insight
Wall-mount brackets help maximize under-table leg space and improve guest comfort along banquettes.
Installation and Setup Tips
Locate studs or blocking behind your finished wall before mounting. Use lag bolts or rated anchors suitable for your substrate. Mark proper bracket height so your tabletop finishes at the correct seating profile. Additionally, confirm both brackets are level before mounting the top. Avoid drywall-only anchoring since it won’t carry the load reliably. After install, retighten fasteners following the first service day to prevent settling or movement.
Installation Reminder
Do not forget to ask us to Pre-drill your Restaurant Tables. You will spend a few hundred dollars with us, or a few thousand dollars for installers to do it during install.

Care and Maintenance
Clean the base with mild soap and water and a soft cloth. Avoid strong chemicals or abrasives that could damage the finish. Inspect anchor bolts monthly to ensure they remain tight. Additionally, check welding joints and finishes during scheduled maintenance. The powder-coat texture hides wear and keeps your seating area looking sharp. For further care guidelines see our care and cleaning guide.
Featured Answer
When should I use a Cantilever Table Base?
Use a Cantilever Table Base when you need to free floor space along a wall or booth. It supports one side of the tabletop while keeping leg zones open. That design improves guest access and simplifies cleaning beneath each table.
Options and Variants
The cantilever series includes a large version for longer tops, such as the 33-inch bracket model. For even longer surfaces or heavier materials, pair with a pin leg. Additionally, many finishing or mounting accessories are optional. All variants keep the same industrial-grade steel bracket and minimal profile, allowing consistent design across your dining room build-out.
