Side mounting of the post 42,4mm 120x60mm, Satin

The Strofix side mounting of the post 42.4mm, 120×60mm, Satin is an AISI 304 stainless-steel side fastening that anchors a Ø42.4 mm railing post to a vertical face. The 120 × 60 mm plate bolts to the side of a fascia, edge beam, or wall, holding the post alongside the structure rather than on top of it. Finished in satin. The post is attached by welding.

This side fastening is used where a railing post is fixed to a vertical surface — typically the edge face of a balcony slab, a stair stringer, or a fascia beam — instead of being floor-mounted on top of the slab. Side mounting keeps the deck or floor surface clear and lets the railing sit just outside the slab edge, maximising usable floor area. The 120 × 60 mm plate provides a tall bolt pattern for resisting the leverage loads that side-mounted posts impose. The post is welded to the fastening, and a satin finish gives a finished appearance.

Use cases:

• Side-mounting a Ø42.4 mm railing post to a balcony slab edge or fascia
• Keeping the floor/deck surface clear by fixing the post to the vertical face
• Maximising usable floor area with edge-mounted railings
• Stair stringer or edge-beam post fixings
• Stainless-steel side fastening for round railing posts

FAQ

What is side mounting?

Side mounting fixes the railing post to a vertical surface (the side of a slab, beam, or fascia) rather than on top of the floor. It keeps the floor surface clear and lets the railing sit at the slab edge.

What post does it fit?

The Ø42.4 mm round post tube, attached by welding.

What are the plate dimensions?

120 × 60 mm. The taller plate provides a bolt pattern that resists the leverage loads of a side-mounted post.

How does this differ from a bottom fastening (base plate)?

A bottom fastening bolts to the top of a floor slab; this side fastening bolts to a vertical face, mounting the post alongside the structure.

What steel grade and finish are used?

AISI 304 stainless steel with a satin finish.
