Wall Mounted Monorail
The Groxx GRXDBP180 is a critical, high-strength structural anchor socket component engineered to provide a permanent, ultra-stable base for portable or fixed davit arm systems. Designed for permanent installation on rooftop slabs, parapet structural columns, or concrete shear walls, this structural base plate acts as the primary interface that safely absorbs and transfers the extreme overturning moments and shear forces generated by suspended building maintenance platforms, material winches, and personnel fall arrest systems.
Rooftop Slab Mounting (Top-Fix): Positioned flat on reinforced concrete roofs where davit arms are erected to suspend cradles or rope-access technicians over the facade edge.
Parapet / Face Wall Mounting (Side-Fix): Direct-bolted or chemically anchored vertically onto parapets or structural columns when clear rooftop deck space must be preserved.
Concealed Architectural Interface: Can be installed flush under roofing membranes, green roofs, or pavers with a weather-sealed riser sleeve, preserving the building’s clean architectural roofline when the davit arms are dismantled.
High-Tensile Galvanized Metallurgy: Manufactured from heavy-gauge structural carbon steel treated with a premium Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) finish. This ensures incredible structural yield strength while providing an ultra-thick layer of zinc protection against atmospheric pitting, rust, and harsh outdoor weathering over multi-decade lifespans.
Precision Welded Sleeve Profile: Features an integrated, heavy-walled structural receiver socket equipped with internal alignment tracks or low-friction bushings to ensure a seamless, non-binding $360^\circ$ rotation for inserting davit masts.
Optimized Load Distribution Base: The oversized, gusset-reinforced base plate footprint features multi-hole anchoring patterns designed to spread intense tension, compression, and shear stresses over a wider concrete matrix area, preventing substrate fracture.

The GRXDBP180 Davit Base Plate is engineered, statically tested, and certified to meet the highest international safety benchmarks for multi-user fall protection and suspended building access equipment:
EN 795:2012 Type A / CEN/TS 16415: Rigorously rated as a permanent structural anchor capable of managing multi-user fall arrest impacts and rescue operations simultaneously.
EN 1808:2015 Compliance: Specifically optimized to handle the strict safety factors, dynamic load testing, and maximum deflection parameters required for permanent Building Maintenance Units (BMUs) and suspended scaffolding cradles.
Fastening Synergy & Substrate Integrity: For seamless overhead or slab connection into reinforced concrete structural elements, the base plate anchors perfectly pair with Groxx GRX851 Epoxy Adhesive systems. This ensures a tension-free chemical bond with maximum pull-out capacity to reliably handle aggressive overturning moments.
Streamlined Low-Profile Footprint: Engineered to remain highly compact and non-obtrusive, minimizing the risk of pedestrian tripping hazards on communal rooftops when the companion davit mast is stored away.
Ergonomic Locking Integration: Features integrated safety pin apertures or dual-action thumb screws to securely lock the inserted davit arm into its structural orientation, preventing accidental lift-out or unguided pivoting under load.
