What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
These triangular metal plates attach to the underside of specific AT switches, joysticks, and AAC devices so they can then be mounted onto compatible articulating arms. Two sizes are available — medium (roughly 8.5cm per side) for joysticks and smaller switches, and large (14.5cm per side) for bigger devices like the Big Red Switch or BIGmack. Each plate comes with the Allen key and screws needed to attach it to the supported device, but you still need to pair it with a compatible mounting arm — such as a Gooseneck, Magic Arm, or Variable Friction Arm — which are sold separately. This is a hardware interface component, not a complete mounting solution; it only works with specific devices listed by the manufacturer, so confirm your switch or device is on the compatibility list before purchasing.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
- Confirm your specific switch or device is on the compatibility list for either the medium or large plate.
- Use the included Allen key and screws to attach the plate to the underside of the supported device.
- With a guide
- Select and purchase a compatible mounting arm (Gooseneck, Magic Arm, VFA, or Lightweight Arm) separately.
- Attach the mounted device-and-plate assembly to the arm following the arm manufacturer's instructions — typically 15–30 minutes total. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
- With professional help
An occupational therapist (OT) or ATP can assess optimal positioning and arm selection for the user's motor access needs and seating setup — typically 1 session.
