Start with what you want to build
The right foundation for your telecom cabinet
A telecom cabinet base is part foundation and part cable interface. Duct openings, anchor points and the finished plinth height all need to match the selected enclosure.
Cabinet footprint
Base size and bolt centres follow the precise enclosure and plinth model.
Explore the details →Duct alignment
Power and telecom ducts need clean entry without sharp bends or obstructed openings.
Explore the details →Dry working level
The plinth should stand appropriately above surrounding finish while remaining accessible.
Explore the details →Impact and security
Traffic, bollards and anti-tamper fixings may influence the foundation layout.

From first call to a finished foundation
Getting started is simple. We will guide you through the choices and explain any information needed before installation.
Talk through the options
We discuss the site and suitable foundations, identify any supplier information needed and provide a clear written quotation.
Install and hand over
Our team marks out and installs the agreed foundation, with the required checks before the next stage of your project.
Choose the foundation, not the complication
Foundation options for your telecom cabinet
These are the methods worth assessing for this application. The structure, support plan and actual ground determine the right choice—not a one-size-fits-all specification.
Concrete
Concrete foundation
A bespoke cast base or precast service slab can provide the required strength, anchors and tapered duct openings.
Worth considering for: Street cabinets, control enclosures and network equipment

Installed ground screws
Ground screws and support frame
A screw-supported frame may be possible for a proprietary lightweight enclosure when the designer approves its cable and anchoring arrangement.
Worth considering for: Selected private-site cabinets with an engineered plinth

Telecom Cabinet Foundations installation
Planned around its use
What matters for your telecom cabinet
JustBases can install cast in-situ or specified service-slab groundwork to an approved drawing. Network cabling, cabinet fit-out and commissioning remain outside our standard scope.
Discuss your project with Craig →Cabinet footprint
Base size and bolt centres follow the precise enclosure and plinth model.
Duct alignment
Power and telecom ducts need clean entry without sharp bends or obstructed openings.
Dry working level
The plinth should stand appropriately above surrounding finish while remaining accessible.
Impact and security
Traffic, bollards and anti-tamper fixings may influence the foundation layout.
When the design and ground are suitable
Why consider ground screws?
Year-round flexibility
A screw-only foundation avoids pouring and curing concrete, reducing one source of weather-related delays. Unsafe access, flooding, frozen or unsuitable ground can still mean postponing installation.
Less digging and mess
Localised supports can reduce excavation and spoil compared with extensive concrete foundations. Clearance, pre-drilling, service trenches and machinery access may still disturb the site.
A lower-impact approach
Using less concrete and moving less spoil can reduce material use and transport. Retaining vegetation may benefit habitats, but trees and wildlife still need protection. Steel manufacture and the full project design matter to any carbon comparison.
Before installation
Dimensions, approvals and responsibilities
Provide the cabinet GA, plinth drawing and duct schedule. Similar-looking cabinets can use different bases and inbound duct configurations.
Highway, utility and public-realm installations require the appropriate permissions and traffic-management arrangements from the project lead.
JustBases quotes the agreed foundation and groundwork. Product installation, specialist connections, commissioning and third-party design remain outside our scope unless the written quotation expressly includes them.
