The SafeBasements™ Push Pier system is a permanent solution that will not fail! Push Piers are designed to stabilize and/or lift foundations by transferring the weight of the home from unstable soil to the suitable more stable soils below. This is achieved by hydraulically driving push pier sections through a bracket (which is attached to the foundation footing) until they reach stable soil. Stable soils are determined by load testing every pier as they are being installed. They are hydraulically driven until they reach the desired resistance, giving them a safety factor of two to three.

The SafeBasements™ SaberTooth™ Bracket (patented) is stronger and lighter than its predecessors. Designed to work with the SafeBasements™ Push Pier system, it’s unique plate locking construction allows better weight transfer through the bracket. Each standard bracket weighs in at 38 lbs. and has a 100 Kip ultimate capacity (50 Kip load with a 2X safety factor), while our patented light duty version (LD SaberTooth™) has a 85 Kip capacity. Four teeth, adjustable stand-offs and a locking reinforcement sleeve work together to keep the bracket in place and immovable during installation. The patented saber-teeth also keep 3 x 5 box steel in place for easily spanning weak foundation footings. Each bracket is constructed from interlocking steel pieces that fit together before being welded robotically.
