Big Foot Block Tray
Altrad Generation's Big Foot Block Tray is engineered to improve the overall stability of temporary fencing and hoarding systems by providing a secure and convenient platform for Ballast Blocks. By accommodating additional Ballast Blocks, you increase wind resistance in your fencing system and maintain the integrity of your perimeter setups, particularly in areas exposed to strong winds or uneven terrain.
Manufactured from high strength steel and hot-dip galvanised for maximum corrosion resistance, the tray is built to withstand harsh site conditions and long term outdoor exposure. With a weight of 7.7kg, it provides the necessary weight distribution and support to prevent fencing panels from tipping or shifting.
Our Big Foot Block Tray is designed to integrate seamlessly with other key products in our Temporary Fencing range such as the Big Foot HD Stabiliser, which clamps onto Fence Panels and is supported by the ballast blocks placed within the tray. This combined setup significantly increases resistance to lateral forces and wind loading, creating a more secure fencing system overall.
The tray’s open frame design ensures efficient water drainage, reducing the risk of pooling and rusting, and its low profile edges allow for quick installation and removal without interfering with the fencing layout.
To build a complete and secure perimeter, you can pair the Big Foot Block Tray with other components in our Fencing and Hoarding system, such as Temporary Fencing Panels, Barrier Ballast Blocks, Big Foot HD Stabiliser, Lockable Couplers and Windbreaker Block Tray
Why Choose the Big Foot Block Tray for Temporary Fencing
Temporary Fencing relies on stable foundations. Loose or poorly positioned ballast reduces effectiveness and increases movement under wind pressure.
When you install the Big Foot Block Tray, you:
Secure ballast blocks within a defined tray system
Improve weight distribution across the fence base
Reduce lateral movement at ground level
Strengthen long fence runs
Support safer Site Hoarding installations
How The Big Foot Block Tray Improves Stability in Windy Conditions
Wind exerts force against Fencing Panels and Hoarding Panels. As surface area increases, wind load rises. A stable ballast system reduces tipping and sliding risk.
The Big Foot Block Tray:
Holds ballast blocks firmly in place
Aligns weight directly beneath structural frames
Reduces shifting during wind events
Supports compliance with engineered fencing designs
Compatible With Temporary Fencing and Site Hoarding
The Big Foot Block Tray integrates with Big Foot Stabiliser HD and the Big Foot Zero Trip Base to provide a robust stability system for approved Temporary Fencing and Site Hoarding systems. You use the tray alongside compatible concrete ballast blocks to form a stable base.
This setup allows you to:
Secure solid hoarding panels in urban areas
Stabilise mesh fencing on open sites
Adjust ballast quantity according to wind exposure
Maintain consistent installation standards
Durable Construction For Demanding Environments
Altrad Generation manufactures the Big Foot Block Tray from durable steel designed to support heavy concrete blocks. The construction withstands repeated lifting, repositioning, and outdoor exposure.
You benefit from:
Strong steel frame for load support
Designed compatibility with ballast blocks
Reliable performance across multiple projects
Long service life in construction environments
