How the Adjustable Upright Works

The slip-lock collar assembly automatically secures the inner pole once raised to your desired height. As downward pressure is applied, the ball-taper lock mechanism tightens for a stable hold. The greater the downward force, the stronger the lock.

How to Adjust

  1. Raise: Lift the inner pole to your desired height—it locks automatically.
  2. Secure: Add vertical weight and the mechanism tightens to hold firmly in place.
  3. Release: Slightly raise the inner pole and lift the release ring to disengage.
  4. Safety: Always hold the inner pole firmly when raising or lowering.

Safety Disclaimer
It is the installers responsibility to ensure your hardware is assembled and used as intended and that you take the necessary precautions to avoid safety issues.

Uprights may require additional reinforcements for stability (such as sandbags, attachment to a stable structure, etc.). Those assembling the uprights will bear the responsibility of deeming when additional reinforcement is necessary.

Crossbars enter a slot on the upright and gravity will weigh it down to settle the structure in place. It is the responsibility of those assembling the crossbars to determine if they require additional reinforcements, such as a zip tie or tie downs, to ensure greater stability.
