Solarport 2 Rows x 7 Columns Portrait Ground Solar Mounting Kit

  • Pre-engineered 2-in-portrait ground mounting kit for 14 panels, ideal for logistics yards, depots and commercial off-grid systems.
  • Flexible foundation options to match varied ground conditions while meeting UK wind and snow loading requirements.
  • Based on Solarport’s stocked Modular system, backed by UK-based expert support from Energian for design and installation.

The Solarport Modular 2-in-portrait 2 rows x 7 columns kit is a steel ground mounting framework for fourteen solar modules arranged in a 2-in-portrait layout. It uses the Solarport Modular system, engineered for commercial and domestic-scale projects and compatible with a wide range of foundation types for rapid, straightforward deployment.

Key features

  • 2-in-portrait ground mount configuration with 2 rows and 7 columns (14 modules total), suitable for ground slopes up to approximately 5° when designed correctly.
  • Modular tables built in bays of 2 or 3 panels wide, allowing flexible layouts and easy extension for larger arrays.
  • Supports panel lengths from 1650 mm to 2470 mm using four purlins and sliding clamps aligned with panel clamping zones.
  • Compatible with multiple foundation options including piles, ballasted bases, anchors, Spirafix and ground screws, so almost no terrain is off limits when engineered properly.
  • Designed in line with Eurocodes for wind and snow loading, with fundamental basic UK wind velocity up to 28 m/s and snow loads up to 0.7 kN/m², subject to site-specific design.

Typical applications

This kit suits logistics hubs, transport depots, industrial estates, farms and utility compounds with spare ground for medium-sized solar arrays. It is suitable for offsetting site demand, powering off-grid loads, running refrigeration or lighting, or feeding battery-backed EV and materials-handling chargers where roof space is constrained.

System design and installation

The Solarport Modular system is held in stock for rapid distribution and is engineered for straightforward site planning, using universal components and a single fixing size to simplify installation. Bay pitches of 2000, 2500, 3000 or 3500 mm can be selected, with an additional 100 mm available when using an Extension Joiner, to suit module width and site layout.

Because the correct foundation, bay pitch and structural design depend on local ground conditions and wind and snow loads, this kit should be installed by competent contractors following Solarport’s design guidance. Energian can support you directly and, where needed, introduce trusted installation partners to ensure the system is designed and installed correctly.
