Auf 🇩🇪 Deutsch

100% free, 100% Open Source und 100% #madeforlive

With the practical livespotting flat roof stand, you can mount your pan-tilt camera or static webcam on a balcony, terrace or flat roof in no time at all. Thanks to the possibility of weighting the stand with up to eight standard concrete plates, even large, wind-prone and heavy cameras stand completely firm and secure. The professional construction drawings may be modified by the user and guarantee an optimal level of customization for each installation. Files are available as DXF, Exel, PDF and STEP.

Introduction

When a network camera needs to be installed on a flat roof, a flat roof stand is usually the only option for mounting the equipment. Due to the necessity of a heavy low-vibration construction, the effort for building and transporting the bulky part to the installation site is very high. With the professional construction plans of our roof stand, anyone with proper expertise can use our proven design and have it built on-site. The transportation and installation costs will be low and the ready-made construction plans will ensure a quick implementation. The freely available files are created by professionals according to ISO and can be used in CAD programs such as AutoCAD and FreeCAD. Everyone can download the construction plans, give them to the metal builder on site or to his own workshop and have them produced in an uncomplicated way. 

Rely on our more than 10 years of experience in uncounted projects and use our construction drawing for your project. The stand can be adapted or optimized to individual needs at the installation site, e.g. in height. 

Of course, the construction for mounting is not only suitable for webcams. Many customers use the flat roof stand for the installation of directional antennas, weather stations or birdhouses ...

Support local business and go green! Work with local companies and strengthen the economy in their region. The heavy construction does not necessarily have to go the long way via a shipping company. The used exposed aggregate concrete slabs are available in every hardware store.
