Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should begin by confirming your post dimensions are exactly 3.5 x 3.5 inches. For concrete applications, use a hammer drill to create pilot holes for the provided anchors. When installing on wood, ensure the decking substrate is structurally reinforced to support the weight of the structure.
Care instructions involve periodic visual inspections of the mounting hardware. While the powder coating is rust-resistant, it is recommended to touch up any scratches occurring during installation with a matching black outdoor enamel to prevent localized corrosion.
