The FLAT Auto-Adjust KX30 is a cast iron dining table base built around FLAT's PAD (Patented Actuator Device) — a self-stabilising hydraulic mechanism integrated into the base that automatically levels the table on uneven or undulating floor surfaces. The design follows a modern X-base profile and is intended as a straightforward replacement for existing table bases, fitting standard commercial table tops.In busy front-of-house environments, wobbling tables are a persistent nuisance — both for guests and for staff who end up responding to complaints mid-service. The KX30 addresses this at the base level rather than relying on staff to wedge or shim tables manually. The self-levelling mechanism engages automatically when the base is placed or repositioned, which is particularly practical in older buildings, marquees, outdoor terraces, or any venue where floors are not perfectly flat. The cast iron construction gives the base the weight and stability needed to support active dining use without shifting.Key operational characteristics worth noting: Self-stabilising hydraulic system eliminates the need for manual shimming Activates automatically when the base is moved or repositioned Allows multiple bases to be aligned consistently across a dining floor Compatible with table tops up to 1050mm in diameter or width Cast iron build provides solid, low-movement stability during service Installation is straightforward — the base accepts a standard top plate connection and does not require tools or specialist fitting beyond attaching the table top. It is worth confirming your existing table tops are compatible with the top plate size before ordering. At 12kg, the base has a reasonable weight for front-of-house handling, though staff should be aware of this when repositioning tables regularly in a fast-turnaround setting.The KX30 is well suited to restaurants, cafés, bistros, and event venues where uneven flooring is a known issue and manual levelling is not a practical solution during service. It is equally useful where tables are frequently reconfigured, as the auto-levelling removes a step from the reset process. For venues with very high table turnover or requiring heavier-duty commercial specifications, it is worth exploring whether an alternative base weight or fixing arrangement would better suit the operation.If you are unsure whether this base will work with your existing table tops or floor conditions, our team are happy to talk through the specifics before you commit to an order.
