Staalboer’s steel tank stands are manufactured to provide reliable support for elevated water tanks. Whether supplying water to rural homes, farming operations, or industrial plants, our stands offer a safe and stable foundation that improves water pressure, visibility, and access.
Each stand is custom-built according to your tank size, weight, and height requirements. The platform is manufactured from galvanised steel for long-term durability, while the supporting structure can be supplied either galvanised or primed, depending on your project specifications.
We proudly supply and install our tank stands throughout the continent. Already installed in: Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, Eswatini (Swaziland), and Uganda.
All stands are either fully galvanised or primed and galvanised, offering superior resistance to corrosion and rust in harsh outdoor environments.
Each platform is engineered to meet the specifications of major water tank manufacturers, ensuring compatibility and compliance on any site.
Our tank stands are constructed from heavy-duty angle iron, offering excellent load-bearing strength, longevity, and resistance to deformation.
We stand by our products; that’s why every tank stand includes a structural engineering certificate for peace of mind and a 10 year workmanship warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Every stand is modular and bolted, making it easy to transport, export, and assemble on-site, especially in remote or cross-border locations.
We manufacture tank stands in a wide range of sizes:
Heights: 1.5 m, 3.0 m, 4.5 m, 6.0 m, 7.5 m, 9.0 m, and 12.0 m
Tank Capacities: 2 500 L, 5 000 L, and 10 000 L

Staalboer’s galvanised steel water tank stands are engineered for structural strength, ease of installation, and reliable water flow, no matter where you are in Africa.
Heights FROM 1.5m to 12m & loads supporting 2 500, 5 000 and 10 000 litre tanks
Our water tank stands elevates your tank above ground level to create gravity‑fed water pressure. This elevation ensures consistent flow, even during pump failures or power outages.
Our standard water tank stand is built using high-strength, load-bearing angle iron, ensuring superior stability and long-term structural integrity. Each unit includes:
A galvanised steel platform to support your water tank for maximum corrosion resistance. The supporting stand structure can be supplied either primed or fully galvanised, depending on your project requirements.
Modular, bolted construction for ease of transport and on-site assembly.
A structural engineering certificate for compliance and peace of mind, suitable for both local and cross-border installations.
This is a reliable, cost-effective option for farms, homes, and industrial sites needing a consistent, elevated water supply.
For higher stands or sites requiring frequent maintenance, this upgraded option includes:
A gang ladder for safe vertical access.
A steel maintenance platform fitted with Mentis grating for secure footing.
Perimeter safety railing around the tank, protecting workers during inspection or service tasks.
Ideal for mining, municipal, and high-volume storage sites where safety and compliance are non-negotiable.
As a rough guideline, every 10 metres of height gives approximately 1 bar of pressure, making elevated tank stand systems ideal for both domestic and industrial applications.
We manufacture stands in standard heights of 1.5 m, 3.0 m, 4.5 m, 6.0 m, 7.5 m, 9.0 m and 12.0 m.
Our stands are designed for tanks of 2 500 L, 5 000 L and 10 000 L as standard, with custom capacities upon request.
Installation is not automatically included and is quoted separately.
We provide a detailed installation guide to enable clients to complete the installation themselves. Should you require on-site installation, this can be quoted for at an additional cost.
Stands are fully galvanised (or primed plus galvanised) to ensure long‑term resistance to rust and corrosion, even in demanding outdoor environments.
Each stand is supplied with a Staalboer warranty for quality and workmanship assurance. A structural engineering certificate can be issued at an additional cost. Clients must confirm whether an engineering certificate is required before the stand is erected.
Elevated water tanks support livestock watering and remote farm operations where reliable water supply is essential.
Where site infrastructure demands steady water supply without reliance on unstable pumps or grid power, elevated stands ensure consistent pressure.
For multi‑storey properties, factories or lodging facilities, elevated tanks ensure adequate pressure, boost system reliability and reduce pump dependency.
Used for village water supply, schools or clinics without stable power supply — elevation gives gravity‑fed water distribution.
