Elevated Kit
This elevated unit is height adjustable up to 24 inches making it an incredibly versatile kit. Adjustments in height and width are made quickly and easily. This kit uses the Stanchion KnuckleHead and can be shipped with either the Universal Base or 12-inch Base. The 12-inch Base provides more stability at heights over 12" and greater load distribution, reducing the bearing pressure on the roof for heavier equipment.
This kit is available in a standard size of 3 feet x 4 feet but can be customized for your project.
Low-Profile Kit
KnuckleHead Strut supports provide a low-profile frame, resting on our universal base. KnuckleHead Strut supports are adjustable for leveling HVAC equipment. Unit width can be adjusted to support a variety of equipment sizes. This low-profile option provides stability in most non-coastal wind regions. It can be mechanically attached to the roof deck in higher wind regions. The standard size for this single-unit support is 3 feet x 4 feet; however, units can easily be customized to suit specific needs.
Pedestal Supports
Pedestal Supports are free-standing adjustable supports for single units that require no frame. Pedestal supports are adjustable by up to one inch for equipment leveling, they can be loose-laid or mechanically attached.
Fully-Customizable
KnuckleHead Mechanical Support Kits can be customized for your needs. This image is an example of a kit that was designed to support eight condenser units. Alternatively, KnuckleHeads can be purchased separately and installers may build frames to suit their individual needs. Please contact us for further information.
