IMPORTANT: A Connecting Backdrop (Extender) will NOT stand up by itself. It requires an existing complete pipe and base package or a set-up that is already in place. Connecting Backdrops (Extenders) only extend the width of a linear span, create right angle turns, etc. Read more about how a connecting package works.

NOTE: FRAMEWORK (HARDWARE) ONLY. NO DRAPES ARE INCLUDED WITH THIS ITEM.

This 8 foot tall x 10 foot wide pipe and base connecting / extender framework kit includes:

Qty 1: B102 - 8 foot tall fixed height silver (or black, with upgrade) slip-fit upright (1.5 inch diameter)
Qty 1: B505 - 16 inch x 14 inch silver (or black, with upgrade) steel slip-fit base (approx. 10 lbs. with included 3 inch tall base pin)
Qty 1: B402 - Adjustable 6-10 foot wide silver drape support rod / crossbar (maximum weight capacity is 15 lbs., evenly distributed)

A Fixed Upright is one piece. It does not break down into smaller sections or adjust in height.

This pipe and base connecting kit will ship in multiple boxes. The approximate size and weight of each individual item is listed under the SPECS tab.

Black Powder Coated upgrade for the Upright and Base is available via the optional checkbox. Choosing this option may result in a slightly longer production time before shipping.

Available with an optional DuraTop upgrade (click to learn more about the benefits of DuraTop uprights). Update 3/29/2022: We now carry Black DuraTops! Your DuraTop color (Silver or Black) will be based on your Upright color selection (Silver if you do not upgrade to a Black Upright, or Black if you do upgrade to a Black Upright).

Please note: The photo shown is for illustrative purposes only. Pieces may differ in appearance depending on package. Pipe and base is intended for indoor, decorative use only.

Q: Hello,I am wondering how to get the frame work for a 20 ft.wide frame only,I believe I would need the fixed frame that is 8x10,and then the 8x10 extension frame .Is this how this would work? Thanks..

Asked by: kay - 1/16/2015

A: You're right on track! Yes, to create an 8 foot tall x 20 foot wide Framework system (in this case, with the Hardware only), you would need 1 of our Complete 8x10 Framework Kits and 1 of these Connecting Framework Kits.

The Complete Framework gives you a freestanding 10 foot wide span, and this Connecting Framework adds another 10 feet to the width.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Q: So if I have the 8 Ft Tall (Fixed) x 10 Ft Wide Framework original framework, by buying this how much more width and height is added to my original?

Asked by: Carlos Morataya - 10/5/2015

A: Hi Carlos! Each of these Connecting Framework Backdrops adds an additional 6 to 10 feet of width to your original 8x10 Complete Framework Kit.

You can add as many of these as you'd like to your original Complete Kit -- as long as they'd all be connecting together -- to achieve the final width that you're trying to create.

For the height, this does not add anything in terms of how tall it will be; it'll still be 8 feet tall, just like the 8 foot height in your Complete 8x10 Backdrop.

Q: This is just the stand correct?? It will stand by itself?

Asked by: Yadira - 9/6/2016

A: This item is for a connecting portion of a stand, and it adds additional width to our Complete 8x10 Framework Backdrop (that is a separate item).

Please note that this item alone will not stand by itself -- it is only intended to add-on to our 8 Ft Tall Framework Kit.

The Framework Only items in our store consist of the hardware only (pipe and base), and no drapes are included. If you'd also like drapes, we have Complete Backdrop Kits that include the fabric as well.

Please let us know if you have any questions. Thanks! Answer provided by: Pipe And Drape Online (9/6/2016)

Step 1: Screw the base pin on to the base

Using the screw located in the bottom of the base pin, push the threaded screw through the bottom of the base (the screw head should rest against the flat part of the base, not the raised counter-sunk part).

Then, screw the base pin onto the base (the base pin goes on the raised portion).

Tip: For maximum stability, we recommend using the center hole for your base pin.

Step 2: Place the upright pipe over the base pin

Our Slip-Fit Uprights are hollow, so putting them onto the base is easy! Just slide the upright over the pin.

Tip: Make sure that the "top slots" -- located right near one of the ends of the upright -- are at the top when you put it on the base. If you put the upright upside down (where the top slots are put over the base pin), then you won't be able to use the drape support rod.

Step 3: Put the drapes on pipe and drape support rod / crossbar

Using the sewn-in pole pocket on your drape, "sleeve" the drape(s) onto the drape support rod.

Step 4: Place the support rod hook end into a slot in the upright pipe

Now that your drape is on your drape support rod, place the hook end of the drape support rod into one of the open slots on the upright.

Tip: Have both of your uprights set up and in place so that each hook end of the drape support rod has a home.

Step 5: All done! Now you have a fully assembled Pipe and Drape Backdrop

You're all done! In less than 10 minutes you now have a pipe and drape backdrop. For an extra tip, continue reading below.

Extra tip - Making sure your spacing is correct:
Once you have the base pin on your bases (Step 1), take the drape support rod, set it to the width that you would like, and carefully place it on the floor. Then put a base at each hook end -- where each hook end is lined up to where each base pin is located.

This helps you check that your spacing is correct before you've already put your drapes on the support rod.

If you want to double check, put your uprights over the base pin (Step 2) and hook the support rod into the lower slots (if available; not all uprights have lower slots). Check to see if it is properly spaced, and then proceed to Step 3.
