Split and sliding side mounts
Expand your possibilities
Our stand-offs stand out
Our unique stand-off type mounts either slide over the end of tubing or clamp on by opening the hinged jaw. Originally designed for mounting solar panels, these mounts dramatically increase the possibilities for updating and adding all kinds of attachments to dodgers, biminis, davits and rails.
Slide mounts with an extensive range of uses
Crafted from 316 marine grade stainless steel, our hinged and sliding offset mounts are available for use with 7/8”, 1” and 1¼” tubing. With them you can:
- Adding tensioning and support struts
- Adding spreader bars
- Attaching solar panels on your bimini top – this hardware is great for DIY solar additions
- Attaching antennae, awnings and foldaways for cutting boards and electronics pads
- Adding grab rails on dodgers, stanchions
- Fixing binnacle or aft rail lines
It’s almost easier to say what you can’t do with our mounts…

Hinged slide mount
No disassembly required
Unlike sliding side mounts, which must slip over the end of a tube, split jaw mounts can attach anywhere, including on frame bends, without disconnecting frame structures. This makes additions, installations, removal for storage and upgrades a breeze – even midseason.
Sliding side mounts
A little sleeker
Our sliding side mounts are less obtrusive than our split mounts (and a little easier on the pocketbook). Great for new builds or removable installations.
Ordering is quick, easy and secure
Just choose the items you need and add them to your cart.
You can even leave your cart to do more shopping then check out any time you’re ready. To return to your cart, click the box at the far right of every page (the cart box is only visible after you have added items to your cart).

Solar panel mount
Outstanding product. We mounted our solar panels to Bimini frame and also created strapless Bimini and dodger. This is our second order and we are extremely pleased with the products and service
Response from Gemini Marine Products
It was lovely to see your name come up again – we’re so glad these mounts did the trick.
Exactly what I needed
Little on expensive side
Response from Gemini Marine Products
We’re so glad they work for you, and thank you for letting others know. We really appreciate it.
Overall Good
Excellent product, a little pricey but they have it. Only downside was the import duty and taxes are not done at checkout so be prepared to pay for this.
Response from Gemini Marine Products
We’re so glad you are happy with your mounts – we love photos if you care to show us how you used them. All the best and happy sailing.
Side rail mount
This worked perfect for attaching to our rail. We attached a stainless steel flag pole to it.
Great product.
Response from Gemini Marine Products
We’re so glad we could help. All the best.

used the fittings to install a storage box between my dinghy davits – all the fittings worked perfectly – I did drill out the set screws and installed bolts to prevent failure
Response from Gemini Marine Products
Hello there Mr A, So glad to hear these worked out for you. Thanks also for the tip on a new use for our hinges – we’re always super happy to share all the ways our hardware can help on board. All the best for now and happy sailing.
