Control Panel Pedestals
Control panel pedestals put control panels, HMIs, and electrical enclosures right where the operator needs them — freestanding, ergonomically positioned, with clean cable management and stable support. Built from aluminum T-slot, they mount panels and interfaces securely, route cabling cleanly, and integrate with the machine or cell. Modular Solutions engineers each pedestal to the panel and operator, so controls are accessible, organized, and safe.
What Are Control Panel Pedestals?
A control panel pedestal is a freestanding mount built from aluminum T-slot that supports control panels, HMIs, and electrical enclosures at an ergonomic position, with cable management and stable, secure support.
Modular Solutions engineers each pedestal to the panel size, weight, and operator position, with cable routing and integration to the machine or cell. Because it is modular, the pedestal reconfigures as controls and layouts change.
Key Features
Engineered around your equipment, load, and integration needs — not a single-use build.
Ergonomic Positioning
Panels and HMIs positioned at the right height and angle.
Secure Panel Mounting
Stable mounting for panels and electrical enclosures.
Cable Management
Routed, protected cabling into and out of the panel.
Adjustable & Fixed
Fixed or adjustable positioning as required.
Machine & Cell Integration
Integrates with the machine, cell, and guarding.
Reconfigurable
Mounts and routing reconfigure as controls change.
Common Applications
Configured for the specific way your pedestal will be used and integrated.

Why Choose Modular Aluminum T-Slot Construction
Modular Solutions builds every pedestal and stand from aluminum T-slot extrusion rather than welded or single-use construction. The bolted framework delivers the rigidity and precise mounting equipment demands, integrates directly with guarding, workstations, and automation, and reconfigures with hand tools — so bolt patterns, height, and utilities adapt as your equipment and cell change. Because the structure is modular, a pedestal relocates and reconfigures rather than being replaced, protecting your investment. Every base is engineered and built in-house in Auburn Hills, Michigan.
Design & Engineering Considerations
How our team approaches each pedestal project.
- Panel and operator brief - We start from the panel and how the operator uses it.
- Ergonomics design - Height and angle are designed for the operator.
- Mounting design - Secure mounting is engineered to the panel and enclosure.
- Cable integration - Cable entry, routing, and strain relief are designed in.
- Cell fit - The pedestal integrates with the machine and cell.
Quality & Durability
Engineered for a professional finish and durable, everyday operation.
- Anodized aluminum resists corrosion and wear.
- Structure engineered for stable panel and enclosure mounting.
- Cable management protects wiring and reduces hazards.
- Bolted construction allows repair, relocation, and reconfiguration.
- Standardized hardware integrates with the broader T-slot ecosystem.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about control panel pedestals design, integration, and customization.
What is a control panel pedestal?
It is a freestanding mount built from aluminum T-slot that supports control panels, HMIs, and electrical enclosures at an ergonomic position, with cable management and stable, secure support.
Can it position an HMI ergonomically?
Yes. We design fixed or adjustable height and viewing angle so operators reach and read the interface comfortably.
How is cabling managed?
We design cable entry, routing, and strain relief into the pedestal so wiring is clean, protected, and safe.
Can it mount an electrical enclosure?
Yes. We engineer stable mounting for control panels and electrical enclosures sized to their weight and dimensions.
Does it integrate with the machine?
Yes. Pedestals use the same T-slot ecosystem as the machine, cell, and guarding, so controls integrate with the equipment.
Do you build custom control pedestals?
Yes. Our in-house team designs control panel pedestals around your panel and operator, engineered and built in Auburn Hills, MI.
