Baseplate dolly
Our updated Baseplate dolly 2.0 is equipped with PE holders, protecting your baseplates from getting scratched when loading the baseplates on and off the dolly.
These cleverly designed holders allow you to ergonomically load baseplates onto the dolly.
Sturdy 160 mm castors ensure a smooth ride over bumps and uneven surfaces. You can design your own baseplate dolly, which can transport either four (10 mm) or six (6 and 8 mm) baseplates including their conical couplers.
BUILD A baseplate dolly STEP BY STEP
Step 1Â Choose a frame
To build a Baseplate dolly that fits the dimensions of your baseplates you have to choose one of the three available frame sizes:
Baseplate dolly frame 73:- Length: 77 cm
- Width: 59 cm
- Length: 84 cm
- Width: 59 cm
- Length: 104 cm
- Width: 59 cm
Each frame has pre-drilled holes for mounting the castors and has been made "hood ready" with four cutouts for the butterfly locks of an optional flightcase cover.
Step 2Â Choose the holders
Our PE holders are the key to our ergonomically designed Baseplate dolly. The holders are equipped with a guide profile which allows you to comfortably place the plates onto the dolly, only moving into a vertical position at the last moment. The plates will slide easily into their designated place and when they reach this vertical position, your plates are safely and stably stored.
There are three types of baseplate holders available, each set containing two holders:- Baseplate holder 6 mm for 6 x 6 mm baseplatesÂ
- Baseplate holder 8 mm for 6 x 8 mm baseplates
- Baseplate holder 10 mm for 4 x 10 mm baseplates
STEP 3Â add CASTORS
Adding castors is the final step when building your own Baseplate dolly. Our blue castors do not leave any marks on ballet floors or other soft surfaces.Â
To bear the weight of a fully loaded Baseplate dolly, it's best to choose our 160 mm braked castors, with a load capacity of 300 kg each.
OUR TRANSPORT CARTS
Baseplate dolly
Move and handle baseplates safely with the Admiral Baseplate dolly.
Protective PE holders keep baseplates separated and help prevent surface damage during use.
The special designed holders supports a natural lifting position, making daily loading more comfortable.
Thanks to the 160 mm heavy-duty castors, the dolly rolls smoothly across rough or uneven ground.
Configure the dolly to transport 4 x 10 mm baseplates or 6 x 6 mm or 8 mm baseplates.
Baseplates can be placed in the dolly with conical couplers attached, to speed up work on site.
BUILD A baseplate dolly STEP BY STEP
Step 1Â Choose a frame
Choose the right dolly frame to fit your baseplate size.
The baseplate dolly is offered in three different frame dimensions:
73 frame: 77 cm length × 59 cm width
80 frame: 84 cm length × 59 cm width
100 frame: 104 cm length × 59 cm width
All frames are supplied with pre-made fixing holes for easy castor mounting.
Each frame is prepared for an optional flightcase hood, with four cut-outs for butterfly locks.
Step 2Â Choose the holders
The PE baseplate holders are designed to make loading baseplates easier and safer.
The material prevents surface damage during loading and transport.
A built-in guide profile allows the baseplate to be positioned on the dolly in a smooth and controlled manner.
The plate only needs to be tilt to a vertical position in the final step, preventing physical strain.
Once upright, the baseplate slides into place and remains secure and stable during transport.
Three baseplate holder sets are available, each supplied as a pair of holders:
• 6 mm holders for 6 baseplates
• 8 mm holders for 6 baseplates
• 10 mm holders for 4 baseplates
STEP 3Â add CASTORS
Finish your baseplate dolly by fitting the right castors.
The blue castors are non-marking, making them safe for ballet floors and other soft surfaces.
For a fully loaded dolly, we recommend 160 mm castors with brakes.
Each castor supports up to 300 kg, ensuring stable and secure transport.
Braked castors help keep the dolly firmly in place during loading and unloading.
