Light Post Bases

• Straight or tapered
• Smooth or fluted
• Has any protrusions like bolts that the base cover needs to accommodate.

• Drop-Over Base (One Piece): Ideal for new installations as it requires removing the light fixture to slip the cover over the top of the pole.
• Clamshell Base (Two Piece): This easy-to-install option screws together around the pole, making it suitable for both new and existing installations and allowing for easy maintenance access.

Style

Our Madison style lamppost base can accommodate any standard 3 or 5-inch diameter poles. We have two types of modification base options, Clamshell and Drop-Over. The clamshell resin base piece hinges open to fit around the bottom of your existing pole. It secures shut with a threaded locking mechanism. The drop-over style base is one piece. You take the luminaire light fixture, sign or finial off the top of your existing pole, slide the drop-over base down, and replace the light, sign or topper.

If you’d like to re-think your luminaires, while you’re at it, we can help you with that!

Simple changes, like bases and luminaires, can upgrade the look of the pole and the entire area. A base change is a quick option for a facelift to provide a dramatic difference, while protecting your existing light poles and prolonging the process of renovation or replacement for as long as possible.

We also have access to a complete line of cast aluminum bases that can clamshell around your existing aluminum light pole. Although it goes against what we generally preach, the customer is always right, and we strive to provide superior service!
