Bass Drum Accessories - Protect, Position, and Perform

The bass drum is the foundation of the kit - and the right accessories make a significant difference to how it sounds, how long it lasts, and how consistently it performs night after night.

Bass drum impact patches are the most essential accessory for any kick drummer. Every beater strike concentrates force on a small area of the head, and without protection that area will eventually wear through. The Remo Falam Slam - available in single and double pedal versions - uses part-Kevlar construction to absorb and distribute impact energy, dramatically extending head life. Fitting one when you put on a new head is far cheaper than replacing heads prematurely.

For drummers who mic their bass drum, a mic hole reinforcer like the Shaw Portal finishes the hole in the front head professionally, prevents the head from tearing or fraying at the cut edge, and gives the setup a clean, stage-ready appearance. Available in black and white to suit any head finish.

Kit positioning accessories including the RugLocks drum anchor system keep your hardware locked in place during playing - combining position marking with active anti-slide functionality for a consistent setup every time.

All products are available online with UK next day delivery, and our team in our Horncastle, Lincolnshire showroom are on hand to advise on the right accessories for your bass drum setup. Call us on 01507 526517 or visit us in store.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you play with a beater, yes. The repeated impact of the beater concentrates force on a small area of the head and will eventually wear through it without protection. A Kevlar-construction patch like the Remo Falam Slam significantly extends head life and is far cheaper than replacing heads prematurely.
A single bass drum patch is a circular pad sized for a single kick pedal beater strike point. A double bass drum patch is wider, covering two strike points for double kick pedal setups. Choose based on whether you play single or double kick.
If you have cut or plan to cut a mic hole in your bass drum front head, yes. An unfinished hole is a weak point - the cut edge can fray and tear over time under the vibration of playing. A reinforcer like the Shaw Portal bonds a protective surround to the head around the hole, preventing deterioration and giving a professional finish.
The Shaw Portal is available in 5", which suits the most common bass drum mic hole diameter. If you are unsure of your hole size, measure the diameter before ordering.
