LEGO® Baseplates
LEGO® baseplate, large or small: what size do you need?
LEGO® baseplates are measured in studs. The best-known size is 32x32 studs, just over 25 centimeters wide, and it fits under most houses and buildings. If you're looking for a large LEGO® baseplate, you'll want a 48x48-stud plate: the large baseplate, measuring about 38x38 centimeters, often searched for as a 38x38 baseplate.
For small models or a single vehicle, an 8x16 or 16x32-stud plate is enough. All sizes fit together, so you can expand a city one plate at a time.
Baseplates, road plates, and colored baseplates
Alongside solid green and gray plates, you'll find plenty of road plates here: 32x32 baseplates printed with a street, curve, or intersection from City and Town sets. In just a few minutes, you can lay out a street plan with space for your buildings and cars.
A green LEGO® baseplate is the classic choice for gardens and parks; blue is for water, and gray for squares or space bases. Since many plates are used, the condition of the surface is always stated in the description.
Combining baseplates with your sets
If you'd rather search by the English part name, you'll find the same plates in the collection LEGO® Baseplate with part numbers such as 3811 and 4186. You can find thicker plates with studs on the underside under Plate.
Baseplates are the foundation for LEGO® City and LEGO® Train and tracks layouts, but also for a LEGO® Classic box for free building. Need more bricks for your baseplate? Take a look at LEGO® order parts.
